School Staff/Student Teachers Coronavirus Discussion Thread

Hi Everyone

For those of us working in schools, the last week has been a real roller-coaster of emotions (or it has for me at least!). We've had to say goodbye to students at short notice, and adapt to remote working pretty quickly.

I thought it would be nice to have a support thread/discussion thread for this period, where we can perhaps chat to each other about about what our schools are doing and share ideas.

I also thought it would be a good place for NQTs/ITT students to chat about how this is affecting them.

I've heard some people saying that NQTs on course to pass induction should still pass, but AFIAK this hasn't been officially confirmed. There's a little bit from the NEU here:

Unfortunately, there's very little news for ITT students at the moment, although the NEU say they are on the case.

Hope everyone is well, and managing as best they can!

since ur a teacher would u know if the yr 10s will be given predicted grades or will they just do them next year
