Our response in general was poor, we have one of the highest deaths per capita in Europe, and we are looking at a large part of the country being under tight restrictions again over winter, following a longer set of restrictions a few months ago supposedly designed to prevent that. Who looks at that objectively, and decides "let's give these people an award" It was probably Div tbh.

DeeTillEhDeh Posted October 30, 2020 Share Posted October 30, 2020 Our school surveyed staff this morning to ask if these measures should be extended to all pupils. Not surprisingly staff overwhelmingly voted in favour. This will be for our school only but I think other schools will be doing the same. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your school might want all pupils to wear masks, but the law is going to be S4-S6. How are you going to get the BGE pupils to wear them? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How are you going to get the BGE pupils to wear them?As an addition to the school's own procedures - a letter is going out to parents/guardians right now. Pupils have just been informed - there was a very positive response tbqh - the pupils feel that if Seniors have to wear them then everyone should.There will still be exemptions but they are all recorded.My understanding is that DCC asked all secondary schools to consult staff on this today - it would not surprise me if this is implemented across all 8 Dundee secondary schools. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sherrif John Bunnell Posted October 30, 2020 Share Posted October 30, 2020 If you don't want your kid to wear a mask, then they can stay at home.The full time mummies will soon change their tune after a few days stuck at home with Logan and Jaxson. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marshmallo Posted October 30, 2020 Share Posted October 30, 2020 Looks like we are about 3 weeks ahead of rUK and our numbers have dropped over a 2 week period in October. I am baffled by why this could be the case. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That NI trend is very odd. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gaz Posted October 30, 2020 Share Posted October 30, 2020 Those graphs are a reet puzzler. Can anyone think of anything that might have happened about three weeks ago that could have led to a reduction in transmission and cases? At a loss here. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At a loss here.Not everyone came off 3 weeks ago.We were off 4 weeks ago.Infections in Dundee started rising towards the end of the school holidays and in the first few days back so god knows what is going on here.Probably a lot of complex reasons, including students returning, cross-authority transmission etc. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolutely unbelievable refusal to accept the blatantly obvious.No surprise - the clique running to support each other. I've consistently said that there are a complex set of reasons why infections have risen. Find me a post where I have explicitly said that schools are not a factor - you won't. The post originally implied it is schools being off that has slowed infections - I just pointed out that for Dundee that just might not be the case as infections started to rise here towards the end of the 16 day holiday - as I said - I really don't know what has driven it up here. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
