For refusing to talk to the school

I am no longer talking to my boys primary school. I am a single parent, working from home, three children, 2 of primary age and 1 high school age. I have been honest with the school all along that home schooling is nigh on impossible, and now they are just repeatedly ringing me. The have admitted they can't offer me any help, so I don't see any point in repeated phone calls, it achieves nothing.

You’re creating more work for them when they’re already under a lot of pressure! Answer the call or drop them an email so they can take you off their to-do list!

They will be checking up to make sure the children are ok, schools have to do this.
If you repeatedly fail to answer then expect a visit from their safeguarding team to check in the children's well being
