Sorry....wrong thread.

The BMA are backing the teachers, but hey what would they know?[/QUOTE

and PHE are saying they should , but hey

anyway my son who is 13 isn’t going back until September it seems but he will be fine he has lessons every day .
, I just feel sorry for all the kids with shitty parents from shitty parts of the U.K. getting fuck all education at the moment but as you say , hey what do I know , just an opinion.

I will say goodnight as I have made my point on the importance of children from all backgrounds receiving an education.

Check out the age profile of deaths from the ons website and apply that risk to kids and teachers

Any info on the likelihood of long-term conditions of those who get infected? Including, children and those of working age?



I am not saying schools should not go back at all but heads and their staff need to be fully informed of how they can protect themselves, the children and parents when they drop the kids off at school. Following this, they need to be given time to carry out risk assessments and implement safety measures. Following this, they need to confirm arrangements with the parents and carers. The school will need to do several other things too. For example, engageing with the local authority re school catering and possibly CAMHS.

Three weeks notice is unlikely to be sufficient for some schools.

you do know how many countries there are in the world ?

I do but the UK started a week behind Spain numbers wise and has managed to fuck it up to the extent that you are now 3 weeks behind. Britain is one of the countries worst affected like Spain and Italy. Given that I wouldn't base policy on what Australia or Korea are doing.

Personally just can't wait until the first game back at the Etihad so I can leave on the 63rd minute to beat the traffic.

For example, NHS nurseries in England - 19 members of staff have caught Coronavirus. Not one caught it from a child they caught it from an adult they were in contact with.
I'm sure you can google this.

In other words they have not the faintest idea where this disease is going.

Just that they'll make a decision at the last minute to factor in the most up to date information.

All very good points and the constructive path to opening on a sensible way .

At the moment it’s a pathetic debate of government open schools unions no .

both are wrong

Haven't the nurseries only been open to key workers and even at that got a 2% attendance record or something similar? That probably explains it. If you let others in huge numbers in though that'll rise.

I never mentioned you gavvo. You just jumped on my post, as you often do. The poster I was referring to had replied to posts about the Mail front page earlier, so to suggest it’s “a publication they’ve never seen” is indeed a bit odd.

well i saw the post on bluemoon from 1933 with hitler on it if it helps . I have never bought a copy of the daily mail in my life , it’s dreadful

"As I often do" flippin eck Ric I post about twice a month if that ! But I have noticed you have a real habit of trying to discredit posters who happen to disagree with you.

Ha, likewise.

I know eh. Depressing, but taught me the importance of not taking football amongst things in life for granted all the same. It'll be back with us one day, I just hope we're really in a better place for it.

I genuinely believe the majority of heads and school teachers would like to open the schools if they were fully informed and felt confident they could minimise risk to a very low level.

I strongly believe in the usefulness and need for unions, bar the obvious number of awkward shop stewards and reps (I have come across a few). Admittedly, the unions may not appear easy to negotiate with. However, the Govt/DfE should have foreseen this and started dialogue with them and the relevant schools organisations earlier.

I find it odd that people are resistant to schools opening as part of lockdown easing measures. It would seem to me it should be one of the major priorities, kids With shitty parents are the worst affected by this . It should be done safely and thank to @Manc in London for at least showing a sensible path to that end !

I don't disagree with this, I'd be surprised if anyone did. It should absolutely be a priority but only when the time is right. When infrastructure and hygiene is in place and the risk is at its absolute minimum, our daily infection rate and lack of contact tracing ability in the current climate suggests that time isn't now, but it doesn't mean its not a priority though.

Wr

in the briefing they said it was 0.27% that have had it

yeah but the mirror figure is 27% of the UK population give or take a few %, does anyone have a link to this Manchester University article that claimed 19m people ?

It's a nonsense figure imho, and quite dangerous in reality, as almost everyone who's had a cold, flu, cough or even nothing at all, will assume they are one of them and just do what the f*ck they want.

things are moving quickly and slowly at the moment ( well it feels that way to me ) schools opening is 1 June which is two weeks away and things are moving the right way infection wise , who knows in two weeks hopefully parents and teachers will have more confidence to a slow return

Hopefully mate. They're moving the right way just slower than I'd like or feel comfortable reopening with. But yeah, let's see where we are in a few weeks and we can go from there, it'd be conditional on daily infection rates being a lot lower than they are just now though I'd reckon.
