To think that this is crazy?

Just received an email from dd2’s school outlining new precautionary measures they are bringing in after half term. Mandatory wearing of face masks and having their own bottle of hand sanitizer - all fine. But they also want to keep the rooms ventilated by having windows and doors open at all times. They said if they’re cold they will allow them to wear a jumper or a coat. Surely this is crazy. It’ll be winter soon. How are they meant to concentrate properly when they’re freezing their bits off?!

I work in a school and it's BOILING. Yes, the windows are open but the heating is on full! Trust me, after many years hearing kids saying "Miss, can we open the window?" in the middle of winter, you'd realise it's really not an issue.

I spent most of my primary school life having to wear a jacket. It really isn’t a problem. Kids can wear jumpers and it’s not exactly freezing out.

DD’s class was still 27 degrees the other day with all the windows open.

If you don’t like it, keep them home.
