The general population seem to think teachers are having an extended holiday?
Since we were forced to close, I've tried to keep in contact with, monitor, set appropriate work for and generally support about 200 kids who make up the classes I'm responsible for teaching my subject to. I'm marking the work of the ones who are in a position to engage over the Easter 'break' .
My SLT have been great and staffed the provision for the kids who need to be in school, allowing everyone else to work from home, per general government advice.
Just overheard my DH on the phone answering generic questions about how we're both getting on, emphasising that I haven't 'had to go in' to work and how the kids haven't all logged on or done the tasks, implying that me trying to teach them is pointless and not achieving much, without mentioning that it's not for want of trying!
I spent the first couple of weeks working so hard to plan ahead and keep things going, responding individually to and worrying about particular kids way after normal working hours, that he told me to relax and just do my best. He saw that it's been harder than usual, but still seems to be giving the impression that schools being shut means there's no work to be done!
