Scottish teachers- how is it going?

[sonicbook]

Just that really. Just checking in to see how things are! Not sure if there is an existing thread. Apologies if so!

Och just asked for my post to be deleted incase anyone figures out who I am.

Happy Friday everyone - we made it through another week.

Oops just posted in the wrong thread. Just a wee fist bump to us level 3'ers for tomorrow. Relieved that there's at bit mor consistency for seniors , where I teach they are they worst at following protocol but the best at eye rolling and muttering. Trying a mask with a valve as that might be a bit easier for teaching in .

Doesn't the valve mean the air you breath out just goes out? (I don't - clearly! - understand). I will struggle to be heard I think, will have to try not to shout though or will quickly lose my voice. It will be interesting!

Think it filters air in better and reduces the clamminess . My COPD DF manages better with that type.

Ah thanks that's interesting. I'm going to become a mask expert in the coming weeks I think!

How are level 4 folks feeling? Public Health were in my school and DD4's this week resulting in lots of isolations. So many things I can't do because "it's not safe" and there's being in school...

Level 4 primary teacher here with kids in secondary. Primary is fine for now but concerns over lack of supply teachers so continuity may be vulnerable. Secondary seems like a revolving door of isolating pupils.
