So many questions

Students with EHCPs are included, so I'm guessing special schools are expected to carry on as normal? But what will we do if staff keep being off sick? And is it really a good idea to keep lots of medically vulnerable young people together? Will parents actually send them in? And will we class as key workers so that our children can go to school? But do I actually want my child going to school under these circumstances?
I don't expect anyone to have any answers, I'm just articulating some of the many thoughts circling my brain at the moment.

I'm in the same situation and find it quite scary.
I mean I would prefer my children to be able to stay home but how can we if we have to work. Our children will be put at extra risk aswell as the children we are working with xxxx

I'm in the same boat- secondary SEN school. I assume I'm now a key worker (support staff, not a teacher) and will have to send my son to his school, and carry on going to work.

Makes no sense to me- we'll be running a babysitting service (lots of crafts and sports I expect) and I'm sure it will be similar at his school. Both of us will be at risk.

Wish we could just be at home together.
