Loads of worksheets here online, all very unappealing in format and quite frankly too hard, I don't even know where to start with them! (Year 2 and Year 4) No need to hand anything in.
Phone call from teacher every 2 weeks, like a phone call with a friend where everybody says 'ooh yes, isn't it awful, we've no idea what's going to happen' and that's it.
No survey of who would even send their DC back to school if they did offer to open, so they could be looking at taking back 10 pupils, or they could be looking at getting on for 600, how can you make a plan when you don't know what your dealing with? No communication of when the return might be.
Not even a suggestion of anything online like a zoom lesson.
This was fine for a few weeks when it was new, unprecedented and likely quite temporary. Week 12 starts tomorrow and this isn't getting better fast. Businesses have adapted to get themselves going again, school need to do the same. Think outside the box. Online school, use other buildings locally that are currently closed, take back all year groups in rotation, sack it all off and make a brilliant plan for September, but do something!
I have a friend who works at our school, none of the above are being considered and its very much an attitude of 'oh its a pandemic, it's unprecedented, it's out of our hands.'
This is not the teachers fault, it's the school leadership team who need to try harder. All the while us parents try to keep a job to pay the mortgage while homeschooling and juggling a million other responsibilities, and try to prevent us all from going slightly mad!
