I have seen lots of posts commenting about lack of work, too much work, not differentiated enough! One sector doing more than the other.
All teachers from both sectors are just as new to this way of learning as the rest of you.
Most, like myself, are juggling work and kids just as you are.
No school has ever been faced with the closures like this before, no nationwide policies in place so school staff know what is expected.
We are all getting our head around how best to implement learning from a far. Sometimes we will get that wrong but not through want of trying.
Most will be on rota to support in school, many called in last minute to cover sick colleagues, taking their own children into work with them or sending them to their own school. (For me my DCs come to work with me as my DP is a construction worker whose company is operating as normal)
When working at home, we will be supporting our own children's set work and fielding emails/messages from parents, setting new work, completing directed tasks from our SLT, writing reports.
My own children haven't completed all tasks asked of them and they probably never will, is it the end of the world, no! They've had a go and that's enough.
Some parents want lots of work, some want less, how are teachers meant to know what is appropriate when you all have different wants and needs.
We may not be on the frontline, we certainly aren't doing the amazing job of our NHS but we are trying our best to support them.
Please support teachers in doing that.
Sorry for rant!!!
