A brief few moments of blue sky before the Yorkshire mist and drizzle rolled back in. It was nice will it lasted.
I received an email from school today informing parents that a pupil had tested positive for Covid. The pupil has been sent home and a further 20 pupils have been asked to self isolate. The concern is that the pupil had no symptoms and it can’t be established how long they had been infectious for. It is entirely possible that the in-school test last week provided an inaccurate all clear result.
Can’t say I’m entirely disappointed that Hawklad is currently at home.
But it’s sometimes not the easiest of options.
Did we have a hockey stick. Did we have a hockey ball. Kind of made hockey practice a little problematic….
Did we have any graph paper. Had the printer run out of ink. Kind of made detailed and accurate graph work a little problematic…..
Could we find a working green pen. Kind of made self marking work (if it’s not done in green then it’s additional marks deducted) a little problematic…..
Could we find the video showing the science experiment. Kind of made writing about the results a little problematic…..
Trying to keep a full, overcrowded school open based on solely on unreliable Covid self tests is a little problematic…..
Life is problematic!

The things they expected students to be able to complete at home were, I agree, problematic!

Same here. Small boy made it 6 days back at school before isolating. Bugger.

Yep. I vented my frustration over on my blog in a post titled Keep Adapting if you want to see my take on it.

Oh yeah… all those kids, and the totally inaccurate quick result tests… BoJo’s plan is not problematic at all🙄🤦🏼♀️🤦🏼♀️🤦🏼♀️ (really need a “banging head on desk” emoji!)
You need one of those old 4in1 pens, with the red, green, blue & black ink. Remember those? I wonder if they still make them…
Gorgeous sky! 💌💌💌🍀💚

Yes, many things are problematic! Especially on the home schooling front. More flexibility is called for on the teaching front! Xx

I admire you for not having pulled your hair out from the roots by now! Government “leadership” is problematic.
