Not defending simply educating. No pun intended.

Or maybe they don't want become embroiled in an argument over something that is out of their control? It isn't the teachers that closed the schools so why come on here to take the flak off people who have no respect for the profession?

When parents keep the children off school for holidays, shopping trips etc it is their right and will do no harm, but when the school closes for the safety of the children it's the teachers' fault and the children's education suffers!

I'm sure many of the teachers are aching to get back to work/in the classroom, it is a labour of love after all they say.

It's not just the teachers. I know someone who works in the offices at the Collegiate who is off and dying to go back because they have nothing to do. They cant work from home because they work in HR and deal with the staff!

Luckily the Collegiate have got JCBs in to clear the paths and car parks so they should be in for Monday.
