@pb4p If Teachers can pressure government into the 24 hour testing turn-around and make schools safer, every parent of a school child benefits from it. Going against the teachers on this issue is saying "I don't want safer schools for children"

I can’t understand why all those businesses upset at closing during lockdown are not taking legal action against this: the data clearly shows that schools have much higher infection rates than pubs, restaurants , nail bars,gyms or casinos- schools should be closed before pubs.

@dr_j_farrell I genuinely cannot believe I am face to face teaching 25 plus students in a small classrooms without mask! It’s unbelievable 😷

Final day of the PGCE done. A year of such highs and such lows and a constant battle to get through. I’m surprised anyone wants to teach after a PGCE...but I’m sure after a long, hot summer (please 🙏🏻☀️) I’ll be ready to get back in the classroom. Let summer commence ☀️🌴🤩🙏🏻👙🏖

[Cheryl Leigh @Coops_]

Last teaching day excited face!This year, without question, has been the hardest most emotional year! A PGCE is not easy and it’s made me realise teaching full time in the UK is not my endgame! I’m certainly not ready to ‘fall into a steady job’ . The adventure will continue ✈️

@dr_j_farrell @exeterclio Thanks for having me! 😊. Hopefully I’ve inspired some student to stay with @UniofExeter for an MA! Not sure how convincing I was about the PGCE though 😂. Best of luck to this years #medievalmagic cohort!

@laurenroselloyd Haha! I feel you! I drove mine into a pillar trying to park in a multi-story! 😂. It will get easier xx

[Cheryl Leigh @Coops_]

@_drsang @HistoricalJnl I can’t wait to read this. Trying to work out how I can incorporate it into one of my lessons. 😁
