I live beside another one that is your polar opposite unfortunately and to add insult to injury she's had painters and pretty much all and sundry around to her house for the last several months. Regularly out for walk with people from outside her own home/family. She will be the first up in arms if the schools are reopened I can assure you.

I appreciate the teachers that have been placed into the unknown but no more than everyone else. We all have to deal with this new norm and also have our own kids school work which depending on the size of your family is just as trying. You may have time to plan your online classes but for the parent it is trust upon us each morning and becomes a juggling act between actual work and interpreting online class work. It's also very difficult to ignore the elephant in the room that teachers will be getting their absurd holiday entitlement shortly but that's an entirely different discussion.

I'm not attacking you but your post prompted me to remind people that many teachers are parents too. We do understand that it is a juggling act. We (my school) took about two weeks to get the balance right as regards worlload and communication. We had complaints at first about workload being too intense/students not able to access work/poor communication between teachers and students due to unfamilar technology, and that's just naming a few!. I think the key is for parents to try communicate with schools what works/doesn't work for you so we can adapt as much as possible. If we don't hear from parents we assumeall is going fine not realising that parent is actually really annoyed at home thinking we don't care.

I had one mother contact me around 3weeks after closure absolutely incandescent that I hadn't bothered to upload any work for my 6th years only to discover that her son was lying to her, showing her his emails everyday with no communication from the school when he knew we as a school were working on teams (he had purposely switched off email alerts). I don't blame her. If I was in her situation I would have been livid too especially when I had "proof" that teachers were just lazy.

My point being sometimes things aren't always as they seem, so maybe contact school directly in case it's a miscommunication etc before assuming they're not doing anything.

I always think the number of other professions who think they can comment on what will and will not work in a job they've never done amazing. Can't wait to see all these people volunteering to help out in the schools when they're open so they can see how safe the environment really is. I'm not sure what will happen in September I think right now it's for the government and department to plan towards. Realistically though we have all made a lot of sacrifices already for this. Parental leave is available and could be extended and I do think hours can be flexible with both children's work and jobs possibly whichever makes sense, 2 hours of actual school work for the younger children is sufficient. I think september is too far away to even be thinking about. There is 6 weeks till the summer ans then in August we think about September. People in jobs higher up can plan how it will work.

Funnily enough we here were only chatting about this recently . We live beside a junior school and would be willing in some capacity to help out in any way that would be a help to get kids back to school .Be it supervision or cleaning or putting markers on the floor or whatever .My husband only said yesterday I wonder if we could be of any use to the school in time .

Also teachers are very aware that there are many disadvantaged children out there who will never be taught or supported .They will be behind in learning and thus in life later on . There are children who are reliant on schools to be aware of their situation at home and be supported and kept safe .There are children in homes where they are left to their own devises and they will not be taught by anyone .And many kids in abusive homes who find solace and comfort in a structured school day

The school should be reporting any awareness of abuse or negligence to TUSLA. Aside from it not being a teacher's remit, they need to stay in their own lane and allow qualified social workers to do their job.

If it's not feasible to get the children back to school, work on a remote solution. 15 minutes is not enough but it's over and above better than nothing. So what if they want to tell you their news?? Maintaining a relationship with the child will increase the chance that a gentle reminder of "make sure you're keeping up with your homework" will not fall on deaf ears. It will give them some structure in a world that for them is currently in freefall and remind them that their teacher is still there and still cares about them and their learning. Increase it to 30 minutes per child if you want! That's still only 2 full days out of 5.

Me too, as I am permanently behind on the work given by my own children's teachers, different school. But then I take solace in the fact that the work is optional so I make sure Irish, English, and Maths are done daily and hit the rest when I can and learning support work is at the weekend. At the moment once my child is happy I am happy.

Well exactly , that was my very point . Of course they should be reporting it and thus keeping the children safe .I wasnt actually expecting a teacher to be the social worker but they are often the child first step in finding help

Additionally, there is a press release stipulating that schools are open for teachers to collect/ use the resources there if that is needed. I found it unbelievable that this wasn't the case, and there it was in black and white. There would be no danger whatsoever to a teacher sitting in an empty classroom all day (if necessary) as long as they are practicing good hygiene.

Can you point out where it states that schools are open for teachers please?

I'm online now and not one student currently is. I can count on one hand the amount of my students who are actively engaging. I ask for photos and videos of them doing stuff so that i can share it with the rest of the class and nada. Just can't win with this situation.

I love the news from the kids and it is hard to keep that going but we are, but you suggested 15 minutes not me and I am just saying it would not be enough time for what you originally suggested. Thank you though for telling me how to maintain a relationship with a child. All you have said is being done at the moment and more. There are deaf ears which I keep an eye on and chase up in various ways but they were deaf in class too and its a challenge getting work from them but it is slowly trickling in.

Khalessi I've said it before but again, fair play to you. In fact my suggestions are not in any way directed at you as it is clear that you are going above and beyond for your class.

Oifig an Ard-Rúnaí
Office of the
Secretary General
Sráid Maoilbhríde, Baile Átha Cliath, D01 RC96.
Marlborough Street, Dublin, D01 RC96.
T +35318896400 | info@education.gov.ie
www.education.gov.ie
13 March 2020
Dear Principal and Teachers
As you all know the Taoiseach Leo Varadkar TD yesterday announced the closure of
schools, pre-schools and further and higher education settings, for students, for a
period until 29 March 2020, to support efforts to contain the spread of Covid-19. This is
in line with the advice of the National Public Health Emergency Team. The
Government, in conjunction with the public health authorities, will keep the situation
under ongoing review. Any change to that date will be communicated as soon as it is
known.
All pupils in schools are urged to practise social distancing, and to minimise physical
contact with each other, to help avoid the spread of Covid-19. This should include
minimising social contact, avoiding meeting up and keeping physical space between
them. Parents and guardians are urged to support their children to maintain this
approach.
This is an unprecedented situation and we are all conscious that in difficult times
school communities come together to find solutions and always work in the best
interest of their students. The Department is aware that schools have been actively
engaging in contingency planning for an event such as this over the past few weeks.
In order to minimise the impact on teaching and learning all schools are asked to
continue to plan lessons and, where possible, provide online resources for students or
online lessons where schools are equipped to do so. Schools are asked to be
conscious of students that may not have access to online facilities and to consider this
actively in their response. School buildings should be available to staff if they wish to
access the facilities in order to provide online delivery, or essential services once this is
in line with HSE advice on social distancing etc.
In order to assist all schools to support students your attention is drawn to a range of
online resources to assist schools to provide ongoing support to students during school
closures.
Scoilnet is a resource to support schools, teachers, students and parents. Scoilnet has
a number of home usage supports for teachers and students to benefit from, these are
detailed in Appendix 1. Scoilnet will be updating the material available on its website
regularly.
…..
2
In addition to the Scoilnet there are other resources available to schools. The Digital
Technology team has developed a new dedicated webpage of curated content to
support schools and teachers engaged in distance learning in order to provide
continuity to pupils/students. The page can be accessed at:
https://www.pdst.ie/distancelearning.
Using some of the online platforms and/or tools that are detailed on this page, schools
will be enabled to limit the impact of school closures by giving learners access to
materials, support, classwork and feedback.
This is a very challenging time for schools, teachers, students and parents. It is critical
that during these challenging times we continue to work together and that the focus of
all is on the best possible outcomes for our students. The support of everyone across
the sector is vital, as we all strive to ensure that this public health threat is dealt with as
effectively as possible.
The Department of Education and Skills, and its various services, will remain available
providing advice and supports to the education sector at this time.
Yours sincerely
Seán Ó Foghlú
Secretary General

Appendix 2:
Information regarding the platforms/tools available
to support distance learning
The PDST Digital Technology team has developed a new dedicated webpage
of curated content to support schools and teachers engaged in distance learning in
order to provide continuity to pupils/students.
Using some of the online platforms and/or tools that are detailed on this page, schools
will be enabled to limit the impact of school closures by giving learners access to
materials, support, classwork and feedback. There are a number of dedicated areas on
the webpage (available at www.pdst.ie/distancelearning) to support teachers in this
task.
- The Platform Section: This section explores the different online platforms that
schools are currently using or may choose to use to connect with their pupils/
students as they continue their learning experience at home (for example,
Microsoft Office, GSuite, etc.). The key features of each platform are outlined, as
well as how these can be used for the purposes of distance learning.
- The Reliable Sources of Information Section: Content in this section highlights
reliable online repositories where teachers can access curriculum-related content
to plan lessons and can share curated information with their pupils (e.g. Using
Learning Paths in Scoilnet). Attention in this section is also drawn to websites that
learners can access at home to engage in remote learning/ project-based work/
etc. Here resources such as World Book Online, DK Findout and Epic are
featured.
- The Online Tools Section: Within this section a number of digital tools are
explored which teachers can use to support pupils/ students who are learning at
home. Each tool featured in this section is described, linked to how it might be
used in practical terms for distance learning and also includes links to associated
resources/ video tutorials etc.
- The Video Content Section: Here a number of video hosting sites are listed
which teachers can use to source and share appropriate digital content with their
pupils/ learners to explore topics and consolidate learning at home.

I do, but this is where the question of the school facility itself was last raised in a comprehensive manner. What has changed exactly? Here's an update from the 24th of March:

https://www.education.ie/en/Press-Events/Press-Releases/2020-press-releases/PR20-03-24.html

All schools, pre-schools and further and higher education settings will remain closed to students....

Nothing about staff there. If there is a source that says that teachers are not allowed into schools to use resources show me it. Genuinely, I can't find it.

alentejo · 11-05-2020 10:45AM

If schools are back in the UK and Europe by September, there will be huge pressure for schools to reopen. The prolonged closure of schools will impact children (esp from disadvantaged areas) well past the pandemic.

I have to agree here.
I was on the parents committee for 3 years (1st year to 3rd year) and we were constantly coming up with ideas etc and meeting once a month and I have to say the buy in from other parents of students was absolutely soul destroying.
Due to work and travel I could no longer commit to being fully involved and felt guilty but the amount of parents who will not give back if it means even just giving up some of their time was incredible (even an hour here or there). I would estimate it was at around 95% of parents were like this.
I am sure that it is the same in the majority of schools.

This is what it says:

Under new public health measures all schools will be closed to staff until 12 April except in special limited circumstances.

Teachers and staff have until 6pm today to access buildings and prepare what they need for remote lessons. Travel and personal interaction should be minimised.

An exception is in place for the schools in the School Meals Programme. This essential service should continue.

Details will be made available of local networks that can support distribution if schools need help.

Wouldn't have unreliable or no broadband qualify as a "special limited circumstance"? And the facility to open schools exists, because the School Meals Programme is continuing as normal.

No it didnt extend to broadband and the School Meal programme was an exceptional circumstance that had to be fought for as kids would go hungry. But I realise that wont fit with your narrative

So the question was asked by teachers to the Department of Education? My narrative is that there are people at work in offices right now maintaining safe social distancing, in spaces much smaller than a school. A classroom with a closed door wouldn't be safe enough for one teacher to be in?

There is no reason children from seniour infants upward could not do social distancing in the class the yard would have to be heavily monitored

There’s a lot of reasons why that isn’t going to work. The fact that they’re 6 years old and human being the main factors.

We’re not wired to socially distance. In fact it’s going against every fibre of what makes us human. We are an intensely social species, probably the most social mammal - that’s literally what defines much of what humans are.

You can’t explain this stuff to under 10s and expect it to be understood and acted upon.

We are looking at a massive challenge.

Also you’re looking at probably causing enormous psychological and developmental damage if school starts to consist of a teacher yelling at 5 year olds time they get anywhere near each other and instilling habits that in normal circumstances would be symptoms of OCD and social phobias.

I’m not saying that we should just throw everything open, but it’s really not helpful to be unrealistic about this.

The only way I can see it working is going to be rapid testing and ensuring anyone positive is kept away from school until they’re negative.

Vaccines may be way off, but instant, non invasive testing say based on saliva may be possible.

We are basically going to have to cocoon kids in schools.

I think we may need to look at school bubbles and perhaps avoiding things like interaction between schools.

Ireland also has an issue in the sense that schools aren’t organised by district, so in many urban areas you’ll have crisscrossing between districts and because of gender segregation, especially in the older religious schools in the cities, multiple family members will be in different schools, so you’ll have much more spread risk than say in the USA, where it’s likely most kids will be in the local school district only.

We have a fairly weird school system by comparison to most of our peers as it’s organised largely based on preference of ethos and sponsor, not physical district.

Take any suburban housing development. You’ll easily have kids going to up to 15 different schools within a 10km radius. All sorts of crisscrossing and they all interact in many ways.

Also you’ve endless other classes and activities - sports clubs, dance classes, music etc that are often organised on other structures again. So there’s a big web of potential crossover.

I think we are going to at the very least have to wind down a lot of extra curricular stuff until immunity and vaccine is possible.

I would see it as making sense to have a 5km educational restriction type thing (bigger in rural areas) to create educational bubbles.

We need to minimise the crisscrossing issues.

It might even mean moving students to schools closer to home for a year or two.

It might not be possible as many of us are very wedded to the idea of school ethos choices. There’d be huge issue with gaelscoileanna and so on.

I’ve a relative who has started gaelscoil and I think she’s going to be very lost next year as she’s had no support on the langage at home as nobody can speak it. It’s not for want of trying: one parent isn’t Irish and the other doesn't speak very good irish. Work sheets and so on is all that been sent out. There’s no remote e-learning or any of that stuff for junior infants. So I would suspect a change of schools may be necessary in 2021 as she’s going to be totally at sea relative to Irish speaking households.

ldy4mxonucwsq6 · 11-05-2020 12:12PM

All these kids will be mixing starting next week.

Social distancing is not implementable in any meaningful way in primary schools.

Vaccine is long way away if ever.

Testing and contact tracing will be vital along with hygiene and new procedures around checking temps of staff and students.

The schools will not be able to remain closed once case loads are very low and kids are mixing 3 or so months come September.

We will be one of the last countries to open back up schools by September.

Schools are open to staff as of phase one next week so that's when the practical planning needs to start.

They are open for organisation and planning, they need to be looking at options to minimise risks now and not at the end of August.

All other workplaces have done this or are having to do the same.

Xertz · 11-05-2020 12:18PM

Hopefully we will have the resources to do it. Testing is currently running at a cost of at least a billion a year and if that is population wide we could easily be looking at several billion and the lab based testing really isn’t proving to be scalable anywhere.

We haven’t even got to the stage where the Eurozone has agreed a bond system. NL kicking up a huge fuss and people in Germany taking constitutional challenges against the ECB trying to implement measures, we could well end up in a situation where this stuff will not be possible and Europe sinks into a total depression later this year.

It’s like we are in the unreality phase.

I’m mean we have 28.2% unemployment at the moment. That’s utterly unsustainable even for a few months.

If we don’t get the finances in line ASAP via a combination of measures, we are not going to be able to afford to reduce class sizes, reconfigure schools, carry out massive scale testing and so on and then we start to get into a bigger issue.

Could you expand on this please?
What pupil teacher ratio are you projecting?
What is the average size of a classroom in Ireland?
How many schools have toilets in the classroom?
How many entrances, on average, are there into schools to avoid congestion?
How wide are the corridors in schools?
What is your experience with a class of Senior Infants ?
How would you deal with the child of a frontline worker who contracted Covid 19 three days ago but only just received their test results?
How would you deal with the other children, and their parents, in that class?
Define how you would heavily monitor the yard.

When you answer these queries I'll move on to the more challenging issues.

Love the last sentence, dying to know your more challenging issues.

Yes difficulties but you yourself s a fellow teacher know that there are no such things as the average classroom as across Ireland we have new builds old builds, prefabs, huge schools and 1 or 2 teacher schools

How will schools be able to go back in September?
