| Comment | Yeah, totally fair enough I was too glib and blunt there on what's a complex issue; apologies.
Tonnes of evidence that online teaching affects some kids worse than others, education is a human right etc. - totally agree schools being open is important from that perspective. My neighbour is a teacher and was saying they could see on the portal that tonnes of kids just weren't clicking a single thing.
*But* I also think a substantial amount of it is: parents want the kids off their back and the govt. know that. I'm not saying that's every case - definitely not. Everyone I work with who has kids was basically 'I am not getting an hour's work done with the kids around'. |
