Disposable teachers?

Anyone else feel that the Government is preparing to sacrifice the well-being of school staff to prop up the economy?
I wonder what the response will be once teachers begin to get sick.

Never doubt the self pity of teachers...

As a doctor surely you recognise the word "some".

you may want to use it.

Pretty sure I never mentioned anything about Teachers wanting extra holiday or Teachers attitudes in general.

The comment is in relation to the opening posters first post. Hence why I have not linked or tagged to anything or anyone else. Pretty obvious.

If you want to comment on my post, make it relevant and at least answer the question instead of getting so touchy about things I never said.

@Vinylsamso

How long have you been in teaching?

Kaykay066 · 16/03/2020 18:02

Surely if schools close teachers need to look after their own kids. And I won’t be sending mine to random teachers to be babysat whilst I work (frontline paeds nurse) not doubting the teachers who would do this but what’s the point? I send them for an education not childcare they are better at home ex is police so we would need to juggle things. It’s not time to fight and bicker we all have a job to do - keep children safe and healthy and I will do that as will all you teachers I’m sure, whether that be in or out of the classroom but it needs to be safe.

I send them for an education not childcare
Indeed but the government ARE essentially reducing schools to childcare with their rhetoric. The level of education IS going to suffer one way or another.

Kaykay066 · 16/03/2020 18:15

Well yes it will I didn’t say it wouldn’t but that wasn’t my point. I am not sending my kids to school to be babysat by teachers they don’t know just so I can go to work.

@Kaykay066
Then keep them at home then

Many schools in Northern Ireland have made an independent decision to close.

I admire the leadership of principals and governors in a time when the leaders of our country have shirked all responsibility.

Vinylsamso I'm fed up with non-teachers tarring us all with the same brush and saying "What makes you so special?", wake at the same time not even reading or registering the fact that many of us are saying we want to do our bit.

Hysterical? No.
