Universities should be open for practical subjects only, as should schools
Lancaster Leipzig University have just moved all of their teaching online as the number of Covid cases has moved above 35 per 100,000 in the last 7 days and they won't return to hybrid teaching until the city of Leipzig has stayed below the figure of 35 new cases per day for 3 consecutive days:
I'm sure the Cannon Park/University area is currently on just below 2000 cases per 100,000.

Certainly unis and secondary schools would make sense. It’s the same all over Europe though. France and Germany are currently announcing new, tighter ‘lockdowns’ but leaving schools open I think
They are and I think they're wrong on that as well unless they have different data

How would that actually work in reality?
I had in mind year groups being in on a fortnightly rotation weighted most heavily in favour of the senior year groups, allowing practical subjects to be delivered close to normal and the rooms to be deep cleaned at the end of the day. In most schools these subjects tend to be in the same block making implementation easier
Universities are able to come up with justifications, academically, why you need access to other items such as the rare books, archives etc. Got to be all or nothing with them, really.So they would be in school all day? In universities surely people going would be from separate halls and spread the virus anyway

Daily infection rate only going up and another 310 deaths
Been very quiet from Boris
They would be in school all day for a couple of days in a fortnight at most. Universities would be able to manage this more easily and just send home those in non-practical courses to free up and collapse accommodation space for the (small) remainder. You can't teach Science/DT/Art/Drama/Medicine remotely all year whereas you can for the bulk of other subjects
If parents were working and had children specialising in science and others not how would they be able to make this work?
It could work in a similar way to the arrangements in the summer term. Likely to be less of an issue due to more parents working from home
What if one works in a factory and another is a nurse?
You were saying that in the Spring though.Anyway I think lockdown will not be an option - I expect this to be a common theme across Europe

Thousands have taken to the streets to object to night-time curfews and an order to close gyms, cinemas, and swimming pools.www.google.co.uk

So France and Germany going back into Lockdown.
Only a matter of time now for us surely? With Boris the follower
SAGE recommended lockdown on 21st September and subsequently said that the longer it was left the less effective it would be.So France and Germany going back into Lockdown.

If you want to keep transmitting the virus then sure.....but schools remain open in both countries....as they should in the UK.
Why are we so slow again?If you want to keep transmitting the virus then sure.

The social, mental and educational damage is too great.....at risk registers and referrals thru the roof.....If you want to keep transmitting the virus then sure.
Ideology trumps science.Why are we so slow again?
You could have stuck an extra week on the half term to begin with, and just made sure those Tory c**** provide food for those that need it. No impact educationally whatsoever.The social, mental and educational damage is too great.....at risk registers and referrals thru the roof.....
....we've simply gotta find a way to keep them open imho
Lets be honest if you can't afford to feed your child you're doing something incredibly wrong.You could have stuck an extra week on the half term to begin with, and just made sure those Tory c**** provide food for those that need it. No impact educationally whatsoever.
