Teachers having a nice little injoke here about not having to work on full pay when people are seeing job losses and their businesses battling to stay afloat. Think it tells you an awful lot about their entitlement and lack of empathy.

To make it worse, it's the tax from front line workers who are keeping the show on the road day in day out that pays their wages.

Some of the smug comments on here are pretty shameful tbh.

We get it. Teachers are the baddies.

Teachers clearly have no sense of humour, no wait it seems the sarcasm or piss take is lost on some posters...

None of us are getting out of here alive, so please stop treating yourself like an after thought. Ea

Near sure James O'Brien said it was the Daily Heil who created this...teachers are the new enemy. That rag always needs an enemy or two. Sells papers and gets clicks

The problem for parents is that sure the schools are closed but there is no situation in which teachers are happy to go back. There are no circumstances bar eradication of Covid that they'd be happy to go back. The unions offer no solutions. Some parents are able to teach and help their children but many aren't. Many haven't got the technical resources nor the understanding. Teachers well at least their representatives don't appear to get that.

Wise up and grow up, Angelo.   Looks like Itchy wasn't the only one who missed the 'humour' lessons.   Teachers have been front line workers since August and we are still working full time and getting the pay that we are entitled to, showing lots of empathy each lesson, every day and, guess what, using a bit of humour with the students!!   If businesses are closing, then it is the tax that others pay, including teachers, which is keeping the show on the road.

What balls.  I haven't missed a day's teaching since Covid started.  I'll be teaching every day until the end of June.  I'll be back in school tomorrow morning, teaching.

I mean in f2f capacity. I don't doubt teachers are in providing a teaching service of sorts.

You are only hearing the negativity of moaners, scare mongers and unions.Their views do not reflect everyone's position.

We are not allowed to do face to face at present.  There is this thing called a pandemic, public health is at risk, you see.  Any teacher I have spoken to would prefer to teach face to face so your "There are no circumstances bar eradication of Covid that they'd be happy to go back." is still balls.

I haven't seen any teachers groups come and disagree with the unions actions, have you?

Trailer summed it up best. Teachers are refusing to work until they get guarantees around covid that can't possibly be given. Thankfully the doctors, nurses, shop workers etc who work in far more dangerous environments for Covid than the teachers haven't gone on strike

No you won't. There is no face to face teaching in schools right now. You can plan lessons and upload work. Other than that, you'll be babysitting if you go into school.
Yes, I will.  I will be in school teaching my classes live on Microsoft Teams, speaking to each and every 120 of them.  No babysitting.  Teaching.  So don't try to talk shite on here.

I agree that we are not teaching full classes but we are teaching the children sitting  in front  of us.  Unions much stronger position in South.
