What teacher is not continuing to teach? If they are not doing so they should be sacked, not put on €350 a week.

What teachers are continuing to teach is the question?

Most to all?
You could have furloughed them at the beginning. That'd be 80% pay (up here in the bit you didn't want) and doing absolutely zero work. A bit late now.

Most to all me hole!

Most are on holiday since mid-march. An e-mail on a Sunday night and that's the weeks work. Feck off there Mammy and Daddy and do my work for the week and I'll just collect my wages on Friday. It's the biggest gravy train show in town.


In the beginning we were told the schools would be closed for three weeks. Then another 3 weeks and so on! And with all the scare mongering talk of the fear of going back in September, this Sh1te could drag on til Christmas.

Funny how shop workers who encounter all sorts everyday are not in danger and can go to work, but teachers need cotton wool!

I suppose the uneducated riff-raff of society don't count.

We are all in this together but there are different rules for different classes of people.

In my experience it's a mixed bunch. I've 3 kids with 3 different teachers. 1 of them is very active, sending out stuff, checking in  correcting and organising classes on some app. One is doing a bit, sending out homework and a bit of correcting. Then there is another who sends an email every 2 weeks, loaded to the gills with stuff to do,  stuff they've never covered and hes making no attempt to follow up. If course there will be nothing gone to him, no accountability she the INTO will back home to the hilt even if there is. It's a shame the good teacher gets no extra incentive and the useless one gets no punishment.

Do you think that even your best teacher is doing work worthy of a weeks wage?

I have 3 kids in national school. None of the homework is corrected by the teacher. Only one of the three sends a sample of answers and has a proper layout for the week.

It will be remembered as the time when teachers got six months holidays on full pay. While workers in Lidl, Aldi, Tesco, Dunnes etc worked on as usual meeting thousands of people daily and were considered under no threat.

Why are teachers who are basically unemployed getting full pay? Why have they not been on the €350 like everyone else without work?

And the nurses working in Ward got sweet feck all as usual , not even a bonus

Sure, they never got it as handy, going by reports on here. I even stopped clapping them.

Haven't been reading the thread much recently. Those assigned to covid wards certainly earned their crust. Also going forward they are going to get it super tight in  areas where the ppe weighs an absolute tonne and the backlog is months long

Bunker probably needs to get out in the good weather for a while.

If you say so. Perhaps if you have legitimate concerns that a teacher is not providing an adequate service, you could seek to rectify that. Or...you could take to social media and Internet forums and demand that all teachers have their pay stopped. That being successful would result in a cessation of all educational engagement, impinge on the rights of the child and create a lot of angst among parents who are experiencing a positive, if not alternative learning environment for their child. Don't let that get in the way of your Karen on Facebook moment though. It's important too.

Clap! Clap! It's our socialist leader Peadar!

I have no worry about getting out! I've been out and working these last 10 weeks! I see first hand every day the double standards!

Weak enough reply, Karen.

Fair enough Peadar!

I trust you're getting paid for what you do?
So why be stressing yourself worrying about others then?
Remember the Gospel story about those that only worked for the last hour getting paid as much as those hired earlier?
Relax and enjoy the good weather, the cleanegcair, cleaner rivers and streams, the greeness etc and be positive.

I am paid for what I do! Do you think worker should get paid a full wage for less than a full weeks work? Do you care? Do you think it matters? Do you think there will be an incentive for these workers to return to work? I mean what fool would go back to work if they get the same wages for doing virtually nothing?

How good is the teaching in your child's school normally ?
Because if it is on a par with the support at the minute , it must be really poor .
Did you query the level.of support?

The incentive is, if the government says your employer can start back as normal, you either go back to work and earn a living or you get The dole! They have to go back, you were just fortunate to get a full wage and be in a normal working environment

Are you talking about the €350 people?

There is no incentive for people on full wages to go back to work.

[Milltown Row2]

Do the minimum wage employees earn €350 a week for a 38 hour shift?
