It’s double take time. Only a few weeks ago the government was basically forcing schools to cut back on online schooling options. Encouraging the use of fines to force as many pupils back into school classrooms.
But today….
The Government has now used emergency powers to compel schools to provide online education. Pupils forced to be at home should get the same education as those in the classroom.
Well I wait to see what impact that has. Will our school switch back on the system that the government told them to turn off……

Have a look at “Education Otherwise” it might help you.

I really hope that happens here too and gets some families to keep their kids home. Our second wave of COVID is out of control here. What a pointless experiment they are putting everyone through.

Sheesh. Does anyone in your government know what they’re doing? The whole world knows our Federal Government is full of liars, thieves and buffoons. Thank goodness for State Government.
Sheesh! 🙄🤦🏼♀️

The more I read how other nations are doing with covid, the more I’m glad that my home is in Aotearoa New Zealand.
And I still find it incredible that a nation such as the UK does not have a well established state funded school purposely established to provide distance learning. There’s 25,000 school kids here that learn this way, and based on the relative size of our populations there’d be roughly 250,000 kids who would benefit from learning this way in the UK.

Love the cow 🙂 It’ll be interesting to see what happens. Sounds like Hawklad is not alone. Some may have his same fears, or other parents are too afraid (or compromised) to allow their kids to go into school.

Not really. It’s because we now have a 1/6 of kids off school and isolating. But they refuse to look at how schools are operating.

The inconsistency of this government is staggering.
On the other hand, if they are switching the online learning back on — and if they keep it switched on — that is going to be a help to many.
