£35.4 million allocated by Conor Murphy towards a pay settlement for teachers .
And them at home doing nothing........

Two Year pay deal as agreed in previous industrial action brought to a conclusion ,equates to £20 a week on average .

So there will be back pay for last year and the last lockdown when the schools were shut and the teachers did noting ......
Yes, we make a lot of notes. Professional teachers do plan for students who need support - lots of notes. The board can see clearly why this is needed. Please make a note. Now, away and wise up!

Teachers winding up teachers is exactly what this thread needs.

Is he not a teacher? Hard to know who is serious and who isn't in this thread any more lol.

A teacher I may be but I will never claim to be a professional

Would a teacher not have used a full stop?! I wonder what EPD means?

When are we getting this back pay then?

Unprofessional

EPD ? Is the some sort of new popular music group like ELO?

Some of our students are now really lacking motivation in their learning so I think that the break for them is coming at a good time.

A very difficult time for many students and their families so hopefully not long before we are all back in the proper learning environment.

Real, genuine teachers actually miss their students and vice versa.

I'd say the buy in post mid term will be absolutely atrocious. Forcing the reopening in early March. There will be uproar here if they extend the closure.

Not sure young ones care atm, fizz completely gone, 2 school years a lot to lose, seems an eternity to young ones. I work with a lad whose wife to be teaches- she apparently said to him that the only ones at school are "those wains whose parents couldn't be bothered to watch them" damage and mistrust has been created in some parts.

I said that before - there were pupils in school whose parents were not frontline workers.

Just sent them in as they didn't want to be a babysitter.

Kids seem to sense when holidays are coming up and slacken off the work appropiately.

And today the ASTI walks out of talks to agree what the leaving cert will look like this year due to safety, and concerns and safety and blah blah blah. When will secondary teachers in the south get of their lazy holes and tell this union to talk and get an agreement done?

Too busy on social media telling everyone how exhausted they are. Most of them wouldn't know a days work
