Amazing! Ofsted wait until half term break is nearly over to 'tell' schools that all year 11 & 13 pupils must be kept 'in achool'!!. No advice as to how the already vastly over stretched teachers are to deal with these pupils.
Those these teachers are, therefore, going to be expected to continue with 'missed parts' off the syllabus' with these pupils, mark all the A level & GCSE paoers and moderate them, run introductory days for the pupils coming up into those years, all social distancing (of course.
Notice that exam boards are still getting their full wack in fees, but now not paying exam markers or moderators (teachers are just having to do this vast extra work for free).
I can just imagine how those A & GCSE pupils are going to be so involved in returning to their classes when most have already started to relax a little and make their arrangements for the next few weeks. Many A level.students already starting jobs.
How incompetent can Ofsted get?
E minus from me for this, their latest farce
