Was it worth closing schools? My sister is a primary school teacher in a more deprived area of a large town. She is in as normal next week with a class of 25 or so children, a few less than she’d normally have. Also a teacher who works 2 days a week is being allowed to send her children to school full time... I’m not sure it is worth actually closing the schools at all as most have been virtually forced to operate as normal. My husband & I are not classed as key workers are working from home full time and will have our 5YO at home too which is fine I’m not complaining but will be tough but it just seems like a pointless exercise?
