Surely a childminder shouldn’t be doing that and parents shouldn’t be sending them anywayA positive case in our school.
Saw a childminder looking after one of this kids who is meant to be self isolating. Saw parents taking the kids who are meant to be self isolating into school to drop off their other kids in different years.
Who says the childminder was told? I’ve known friends to play down a cough in the early days so they can go only to be called a few hours later. It’s so unfair on those care givers.
Fellow school staff Tattlers, can I ask how you’re finding things at the moment? For us, it’s the worst it’s ever been. Nearly 25% of staff off positive, two bubbles closed + their staff and another two possibly going to pop (awaiting results), another good fifth of families outside the already popped bubbles in isolation. PHE desperately trying to keep things open.
it’s an exhausting nightmare this week. constant firefighting. I’ve suddenly become an IT expert trying to help parents access home learning (school admin is off) on software I’ve never used, and in spite of us asking parents for weeks to log on and test that they can access everything, it seems very few have and have lost account details etc.
Staff are being fraught with one another, we had kids scrapping left, right and centre. It feels like a pressure cooker about to explode for us
we are now half the school down in bubble closures. Apparently we are at a normal rate of closure and this is how it is all over. Some schools only have 1 bubble in. It’s a mess, in all honesty - government have let schools down badly with “business as usual but not much support” tactic.
What with some people being forced back to work, it’s not always possible. As long as they are keeping those kids as far away from people as they can that’s all they can do. The other child’s education shouldn’t be penalised because they don’t have someone to stay home with their sibling.
I don't think he is.. he's basically been going against everything they've said from lockdown one ..It's the hospital situation that's forced his hand Gupta and co are for herd immunity but that takes years to achieve and is not workable in the short term as the argument is 90% of people have not had it yet along with the fact immunity doesn't last and letting an unknown disease that's constantly changing run amok is not a good idea..It's too early to consider that approach as not enough is known about the disease or the outcomes of it yet..
It's illegal though and could invalidate a childminders insurance as it's potentially putting other kids in her care at risk .
Try not to worry, worse case she’ll spend some time watching dance videos on tiktoc. Hope your chemo goes ok.
I mean in regards to bringing isolating kids on the school run. Some don’t have a choice.
Yeah it's sending them to childminders I was referring to,if you've no one at home you have to take them .
She will be ok just keep in touch with her, if she’s anything like I was at that age she’ll still be in bed when you get home. Sorry that you’re having to go through all of this stress x
BBC reporting from 16 mins ago that rapid testing across Liverpool starting today at 12 with a quote from the mayor?No other news outlets seem to have anything on this yet.
BBC updated their article 10 mins ago and it still says they are using rapid tests so maybe wait and see when they/other big news pick it up as I feel like the media will be loving this if true
more government failings to add to the ever growing list.
If yours are anything like mine they'll be giving you the funny mum is crazy look and telling you to get lost
hope your treatment goes well I'm sure she'll be fine x
Yeah it’s going to put a lot of parents in an awkward position if they are single parents or like me their partner is at work during school pick up/drop off. They are both too young to be left home alone so i’d either have to bring the isolating child with me or keep them both home
