You are most welcome to this school staff support thread to get us through stressful times. It is meant for school staff. Baiters and bashers can jog on somewhere else.

If you are NOT staff and just have a general education query please start your own thread.

You can play here only if you are a member of one the following groups-

-ABBA - anti bashers and baiting association
-SWAB - school workers against bashers
-SWOT - school workers opposing teacherbashers
-STARS - schoolworkers together against ranting + slurs

Other requirements for staff room entry include the ability to find the staff room, the ability to find a clean mug in the staff room, knowledge of the photocopier codes, and the ability to sniff out where the toffee vodka is hidden.

If you are fed up with cakes and biscuits there is now a cheeseboard on offer

If you come with a stick to beat us with then please do so elsewhere and not in the staffroom

Georgia 6 kids 3 staff but more info would help was it the kids infecting the teacher.
Well anyway clear that infection is going one way or the other so SD needed.
Gov are doing a Cheltenham and football matches mass gstherings are fine.
The more they lie the less trust there is of anything they say.

Hercwasonaroll · 09/08/2020 22:49

I promised myself I wouldn't get sucked in yet there I am. Have you seen the poem?!

FrippEnos · 09/08/2020 22:56

Good luck Scottish comrades!

WhenSheWasBad · 09/08/2020 23:00

That fucking poem Hercwas

I need to get off that thread or I’ll not sleep tonight.

WhyNotMe40 · 09/08/2020 23:01

Right I need to go to bed and stop getting baited by trolls

WhyNotMe40 · 09/08/2020 23:01

Argh I'm all riled up! That patronising fucking piece of shit of a poem??! Grin

noblegiraffe · 09/08/2020 23:02

I think the poem was genuinely well meaning, just very poorly timed.

WhyNotMe40 · 09/08/2020 23:07

Also patronising

Hercwasonaroll · 09/08/2020 23:07

Poorly timed and factually bollocks.

I'm riled too now. Need to leave the trolls to their bridges.

noblegiraffe · 09/08/2020 23:10

Well yes, those things too. But at least well-meaning. Unlike the other tossers.
