There was a film on the News earlier showing children of essential workers ....... all sitting round the same table  - no distancing measures there then.  Presumably they were in school together prior to lockdown but the article didn't make that clear.

Nothing been mentioned here yet (South) about even a possible date for pupils going back. It was mentioned that maybe after half term there could be a return of the more vulnerable pupils but this was not then clarified by the local authority. The idea is, also, that if teachers have to go back before their own children are allowed back into their own schools then the children will join their school's teaching hub meaning that grandparents wont have to get involved. Much like now, where keyworker's children are being looked after in a hub. Our hub currently has 41 children in. The distancing is being strictly adhered to although, when it rained, indoor playtime meant that this was much harder to carry out.

Our local hub has 2.5 children  - for 2 teachers.  The half child is cared for at home when it's parent isn't working ....... I think that all children with essential workers should have been in school for 5 days a week, not pick and choose.

Why? It isn't proper school, more child minding so key workers can go to work. If they choose to look after them themselves when they're at home why shouldn't they?
 DD is the child of a key worker and there's no way she's going to school. Like everyone else we're doing our best not to catch it.

Because I know the teachers.

How do you know how many kids and teachers there are in your local hub?

It's a shame the school hasn't joined with another to make a larger hub. We only had five in ours and so had to join another hub in the area to allow for only one school to be operating.

Bugga - bat soup with mango dipping sauce off the menu tonight then?


Wasn't thought possible.  It's taking in from across the area as it is, initially 35 pupils were booked in  .  If they had been booked in they should have remained, they are getting some kind of schooling in the mornings and play on fine afternoons.  Bit like when I was in School, when we got rowdy it was 2 x 2 for a Nature Walk

Did they test mango blood or wee

It is strange when they're booked in but don't turn up. My small school has a total of 50 pupils and originally 12 booked in. Five arrived so we joined with the next village school who had 15 booked in. The next day only 2 of theirs turned up so after advice from our local authority we moved to another larger school who had a stable hub uptake of 41. Our pupils love the wide array of resources available to them in the larger school. I don't think they'll want to come back
