1st June 2020 marks when schools reopened to reception, year 1 and year 6 (even though schools weren’t technically closed in the first place).
I am with a key worker group of year 2 to year 5 children. I must say, it is better than I thought it would be with more children and being in school more days in the week. I actually feel like I’m teaching again! The children have started coming since the start of June have been happy to be back, and I know other children from other years groups want to be back too!
There has been a lot of things about teachers and the current situation in the media, saying it is teachers that do not want schools to open before summer, or that we don’t care about the children as we are stopping them from going to school. I will say this, as a teacher in her second year of teaching, I can’t wait for schools to be fully open, and have my class back!
