So tonight my teacher friends are telling me that increasing numbers of students are testing positive for covid.

It seems that parents are allowing their children to have parties and sleepovers making it impossible to continue to provide quality education to their children.

Some advice from a parent, former teacher:
1) Know where your child is especially when they’re not in school
2) Do not allow sleepovers
3) Minimise socialising apart from organised sports clubs
4) If not in a sports club ensure they are into out for a limited amount of time

We’re all in this together, it’s horrific. No one is finding this easy! Especially for those that have experienced COVID19

We all have a personal responsibility to keep each other safe.

Education is hugely important and is a priority over socialising and having fun.

Christmas is around the corner, our firebreak in Wales has had a positive impact but with people pushing the boundaries now will be an issue for us all in a few weeks time.

Our key workers and NHS deserve better and our priority is to keep our families safe from #COVIDー19

Got to love a pile on... my point is that we have to prioritise education above socialising. We have to take more personal responsibility for ourselves and children.

A classroom is not perfect but it is a (reasonably) controlled environment.
