Indeed it is a can of worms but the answer will only be found if ALL factors are considered and not just those that are politically correct.

I worry about a spike here after all the marches and partying, there seems to be more than a few people who simply dont care.

NUT a few years ago said 40% of teachers were thinking of leaving their profession, are we really going to get these people off Furlough?

Which teachers do you know are on furlough?

All those I know are working as usual, delivering either to vulnerable learners in schools or delivering online learning. I don't know of one teacher who has been furloughed?

You didn't ask them why they weren't still working either in school or (like most teachers) preparing and delivering online?

Anyone on here with kids had situations where their school has stopped delivery altogether and staff furloughed? The only reasons I can think of for furloughing a teacher would be if the teacher was manifestly hopeless as tech and unwilling to learn and adapt as 99% of teachers have had to work hard to do. Ie a liability teacher that can't be gotten rid of, so sent out of their way so real teachers can do the job. That sound like your mates? Certainly sounds like at least one of them! Feel sorry for the kids he gets.
