Why I think teachers should stop working in this lockdown.
As scientists say, the virus doesn't effect us children as much as adults so if one of were to get infected we probably be ok!
Here is the problem, kids go to school everyday and while we are there, we are in contact with our staff and teachers which isn't a very good thing.
Some of us could catch the virus without even knowing and pass it onto one of our staff and that would be a serious issue! Bubbles would have to shut down and we would miss out on our school learning.
We could use google classroom or any online learning surface which would be a great idea! Personally, I think we should just stop going to school now so we know everyone will be safe!
What are your thoughts on teachers going to work?
thanks for reading!

Yes, but children NEED education. Plus, if the school is using anti-bac hand gel and washing hands regulary (is that how you spell it???), no-one will get it. Get it?
cant u do it on something like seesaw?

This is very true encouraging_mulberry a nod I think kids shouldn’t go to school during coronavirus because secondary school and primary school, are places were kids can get cold and even coronavirus more so I think we should at least take a 2 week break of school to make sure the virus calms down and then we could go back to school

Very interesting thought encouraging_mulberry they have not thought about teachers as a priority and they have recklessly kept them in a school with probably infectious unknowing children which they may make contact with very. good analysis
What evidence do you have to say the decision is "reckless"? The government might say it has thought about everything and come to a conclusion after lots of deliberating.

After reading this, I think that schools should be closed and should be online as it is much more safer.What if someone coughs or sneezes at you? Also, scientists have said that it is not likely for the children to contract the virus but if the teachers get it and they pass it on to children then the chances of having the virus would increase as you've been in close contact with someone who has the virus. Although the schools have started to add new rules to ensure our safety, I still think online classes are safer.I am not saying that school and education is not important, nor that they are not trying hard to keep us safe but it's better to be safe than sorry.

I agree with you encouraging_mulberry because we already have google classroom and other things on the internet. We might as well just go on lockdown

I agree with you encouraging_mulberry we all need to make sure that staff are safe as well as teachers.

Great post encouraging_mullberry. You've clearly given it some thought and provided reasons for your opinion.
There's clearly some great online tools that can be used for teaching (google classroom like you said), however do you think there are any limitations of virtual classrooms?
Why do you think that schools (and universities) are currently being kept open?
Arjan
Hello Mr Arjan, my answer to your first question "Do you think there are any limitations to virtual classrooms?" is yes. Many children don't have to equipment for online learning or just can't afford it but that is when schools come in! They can provide there students with temporary electronics so pupils can join in with learning at home. I think universities, colleges and schools are being kept open because as i said before loads of kids don't have/can't afford tablet, laptops or even any electronic so they would need to go to school but have to be safe by social distancing, washing their hands regularly and wearing masks!
Thanks for reading! encouraging_mulberry
Excellent response, encouraging_mulberry!

I think schools should be closed and children should be taught by teachers on zoom / video classes so its safer for the children and the teachers and the same with university's / collage

I think teachers should stay at school because ...
1. We need education
2. All the adults in our school wear masks and face shields and
3. We have social distancing rules and we wash our hands 5 times a day

I guess we could work on Google classroom as it is safer but if we are at school we are washing and sanitising our hands all the time

Besides teachers are key workers and doctors and people that work in supermarkets eg. These people all go into work so what makes a different that teachers go into work.
