Teachers aren’t just for Term time!

Wait wait wait wait....

I know Christmas is over but why have all the Easter Bunnies disappeared? I mean, I have chocolate eggs in my house & I’m still struggling through ignoring lent, like I do every year!

So why does it say Sports Day on the calendar & why is it, apparently, next week? Surely school can’t be coming to an end already, it’s only Apr.....ay.......June! It’s freaking June?

This can’t be real! It has to be some kind of Flight of the Navigator time travel type of World, gotta be!

If it’s June & Sports Day is coming up, that means.......... School IS about to end, & that’s means I won’t get peace to have my post school run naps!

The Dementors will be home every day, all day for two whole months! Two loooooong months & with Sod’s law being against me, time will stand still. Every whinge filled minute will last an hour & that’s with me doing the whinging!

They will look to me for food, entertainment & just when I think they are happy they will want something else, probably more food. I’ll be expected to PARENT them!

Maybe we can watch Flight of the Navigator! Have you seen it? That’s classic 80’s nostalgia

It may be too late for this year but we have to look at 2020 & beyond! Surely the teachers get a bit bored with all that time off, not to mention the cost to the public purse! Paying professional educators to sit at home for what, three, maybe four months of the year!

We need to be getting better value for our money!

Imagine the summer schemes they could be running, which would not only give them purpose & make them feel valued through the Summer but negate the need for so many parents to spend a fortune on childcare, leaving more disposable income for us to pump back into the economy!

This isn’t a selfish plan, it’s a sound economic platform to stimulate growth & make best use of our resources.
Leave it with me....

Dear next Prime Minister,

I’ve had a thought......
