Heads are out chatting to parents - it's for parents to keep their distance really as they're usually the ones approaching. I suspect while the head probably wants that "social distance" they're not going to move back each time a parent/carer approaches as that would seem rude.
One entrance.
Supposedly 1 way system. Though the gates for in and out are side by side, there is only one path. You're supposed to keep left but the class entries are on the right so you have to cross in front of people who are keeping left. And walk on the grass to enter, which most go through the grassed entry gates and then go onto the paved, exit route.
Staggered starts and finishes (I think multiple classes have the same start times e.g. Class 1, 3 and 5 all have the same times and 2, 4 and 6 are 5 mins later. I'm not certain how many are at what times as we were only informed of our own class times) But there's not much in it and there are still lots of people around at the same times and having to weave in and around.
Kids aren't supposed to play on play equipment in the play grounds (according to risk assessment) but that hasn't been communicated specifically to parents (I'm sure plenty won't have read a full risk assessment) and so they are.
In print, they're very well prepared and thought out (all plans and risk assessments were published and send to parents), but in reality it's the parents/carers that aren't really doing as well with the rules as they could be.
But i also understand there's limited point to some of it. Kids are in groups of 30 or so in class as well as mixing with teachers and other staff. So parents are effectively mixing too as the children are. So there's little point in parents keeping apart strictly when the kids are already exposed to so each other.
It could all definitely be handled better but at the same time, I dont want school to be some regimented system where they're not allowed any fun or freedom because of this. This is going to be life for a long time. We have to adapt.
