In 1971, with one or two exceptions, most schools in the borough let kids go at lunchtime to attend the FA Cup fixture
I guess there's a different ethos these days, but wouldn't it make sense for schools to do the same on Wednesday? I don't have kids of school age now, but rather than parents trying to sort out an arrangement with their school individually, i wondered if there was any mechanism anyone might know of whereby an official approach might be made on behalf of all parents in the same boat... or coach... or whatever?

You should witness it, it's an eye-opener
Laze around, do nothing, the Friday before they go back they scribble a bit of planning onto a post it note and that's about it.
They have classroom assistants who do most of the work for them too.
Half a day off a week to eat biscuits and gossip
Extended lunchtime
Start late
Finish early
Get to go on trips to the zoo and class it as work Normally on strike if somebody dare to say they should do a bit more. |
Seems an accurate self assessment?Someone's not picked up on the tic in your post and marked you down,the very cheek |  | | |

If they do fine the parents for taking kids out for 2 sessions (Weds Afternoon and Thursday Morning), do they get some kind of compensation next time the teachers go on strike over some petty argument? Just wondering |
Would you remind me the last time all schools were closed because teachers went on strike over a petty argument (like the quality of kids' education)? |  | | |

Would never choose to be a teacher myself, I like to do 40 hours a week. |  |
