I was involved in a conversation today with some parents and some teachers.
One said that their school was open tomorrow and expressed surprise at this.
All of the primary schools where I live are closed,so I asked how come this particular school was open.
The teacher said it was open yesterday and only 5 kids turned up to his class.
And they ended up contacting the parents to request them to collect the children early if at all possible.Which most of them did.
He said that getting to his school was extremely difficult for both the parents and the teachers,but the school principle was insisting on opening till 11 o clock,as if they open at 8.55 and close at 11 ,they don't have to make the time up later.
Now forgive me for being cynical ,but isn't this just unbelievable!
They go in for two hours and that means they dont have to make up the rest of the time!!
