The Thirty-Sixth Republic - New Year approaching, no clear idea of what is happening next week and has Gav been sacked yet?

[SantaAssociationRepresentitve]

You are most welcome to this school staff support thread to get us through stressful times. It is meant for school staff only – a sort of room of requirement. Baiters, haters, goaders, 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 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

Do not give the staffroom password just in case it attracts the wrong sort

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 booze is stashed - Thirsty Tuesdays, Fizz Fridays now in operation.

If you come with a stick to goad us then that is not allowed in the staffroom and you will receive a detention

We’re staying in 3, area I teach in is going up to 3.

Hancock "British... British... British "

Yes they're totally using this to put a Positive spin on brexit.

You’d definitely want to send Boris down the GUM clinic before you shagged him.

@SmileEachDay

Boris seems super-fertile so you wouldn’t want to risk shagging him

I’d be in full hazmat.

😂

Shit, I'd not expected the NE to be tier 4...

@NeurotreeWenceslas

Shit, I'd not expected the NE to be tier 4...

Same that is a surprise as my towns rates dropped for a while.

@Saucery don't blame you x

Tier changes

South of the Tyne is shooting rapidly up, north is still just creeping. So probably that's why.

Oh my God I never thought Jeremy Hunt would come to our rescue!

noble you've obviously been on one of our nights out with that shag marry kill suggestion!

Shag Gav
Marry Boris
Kill Gove

School is going into Tier 3, majority of pupils live in Tier 4.

I guess they come under 'travel for education'.

@Monkeytennis97

Oh my God I never thought Jeremy Hunt would come to our rescue!

Was he told off for not wearing a tie?

Looks like South West moving into tier 4. But that's fine. I sure myself, my colleagues and my DC will be fine inside our schools with the magic walls and rainbow unicorn sparkles. FFS.

I'm on my first trip out since mid December, queueing to get into a shop to buy food. Local hospital is cracking under the strain. Things don't look too different to March when we were in lockdown so why do they not care now?

@RigaBalsam yes lol!

@RuleWithAWoodenFoot

I've just made an accidental 'move files' fuck up mouse click thingy, and moved our entire phase planning 'somewhere'... can't fucking find it on the T drive. And now obviously the VPN is like treacle. FUUUUUUUCK.

CTRL+ Z to undo?

Dh is wondering what I'm sniggering about

Tier 4 for us. Probably didn't help having all the tier 3 and 4 people coming to us for a nice day out and their Christmas shopping

@Monkeytennis97

Oh my God I never thought Jeremy Hunt would come to our rescue!

What’s he done?!

Tier 3 for me. Surrounded by areas moving into Tier 4.

4 here.

(Sorry, thats the shagging Boris stuff, not your moves into higher tiers )

Totally agree with @RafaIsTheKingOfClay @noblegiraffe and others:

Shag Gav
Marry Boris
Kill Gove

@Achristmaspudsskidu basically saying schools were closed in the last peak surely they should be closed now (paraphrasing)

Tier 4 here. Not a surprise.
