I& #39;ve serious concerns about the mental health and wellbeing of school leaders currently. I& #39;ve heard of all sorts of prep going on in schools, some that may seem over the top or unnecessary.

But taking a step back, enormous responsibility&liability has been thrust on leaders

#1

With only vague guidelines to work from, everyone is terrified they& #39;ll be the one to lost a member of staff or a child to COVID, and imagining the guilt of whether they could have done more.

So we might see and hear of measures that sound ridiculous in different places

#2

But if you thought there was even the slim chance it would stop someone& #39;s death, would you not think its worth a shot.

When left to figure things out and hugely varied knowledge and understanding of COVID, what should they do?

#3

So staff, parents etc try to give your leaders a break if they suggest something that you think is silly or ridiculous or over the top. Take a minute to realise what pressure they must be feeling and work together to figure it out.
