Its been very well publicised. Sure it mightn't get them 5 star meals in fancy hotels or avocado or shìte like that that they are used to but it would allow survival.

Ray Donovan wrote: » 1 day a week for primary schools is the most creative solution they came up with?? How about this and I’m just spitballing here: Say a school has 200 pupils and 12 teachers including Special Ed. Monday to Wednesday lunchtime - 100 kids are brought in and split into the 12 rooms and taught by the teachers in a ratio of 8/9 pupils to 1 teachers. At lunchtime on Wednesday these 100 kids go home and the other 100 come in and repeat. No children withdrawn for Special Ed unfortunately due to logistics etc. Just a thought but probably a million reasons why this couldn’t happen.

JRant wrote: » Has it occurred to you that maybe the children don't want to be with their parents 24/7 either? They need to spend time with peers, almost like regular human beings. Maybe for some parents this is a wake up call to spend more time with their children. Maybe an awful lot of parents already do that anyway. Must be fantastic to live is such a black and white world while making blanket statements about something you have absolutely no insight into.

I could be wrong but my memory is that the Independent seems to be the publication of choice when it comes to kite flying by the government in this pandemic and seems to have been previously more accurate (open to correction on that) I’m not sure I see the logic though in kids going back one day a week or is this just maybe leaving cert classes? My wife is a primary school teacher and whilst there’s nothing official the general consensus is primary won’t be back until September or maybe a little earlier in August.
