How do you feel about coming back to work?
I wonder how fellow teachers who have already come back to work or about to feel about it.
Here students will come back to school on September 10th. It looks like in order to make smaller groups, secondary students will go one day to class and take online lessons the next day (not the best way to do it in my opinion, doing it in a weekly basis would have been better).
We do not anything yet about disinfection, ventilation (a very important yet often neglected point), how kids will move inside school, how recess will be, if all students (there are more than one thousand where I teach) will enter and leave school at the same time 🤯, what will happen if a student or teacher is tested positive or has Covid symptoms. We do not either if students or teachers will be tested either. Or whether students, and from what age, will have to wear masks.
I am not scared. There is a risk, but living is taking risks. I am angry. Angry at the stupid policians who wasted the whole summer not thinking about it, and will take hurried decisions these days. Angry at how often they say 'there is no money to hire new teachers'. Angry at how little education matters.
