I know all teachers are not holiday-seeking Marxists. My dad was one, and he worked most evenings, weekends and holidays.
But the school where my kids go did absolutely jack during the previous lockdown. I expect more of the same this time. The effort from the parents varies, but those on their own, or with jobs, will struggle.
The worst thing is the lack of contact with their peers and the lack of formal structure. School provides this for kids in addition to their technical education. A zoom lesson cannot deliver this. I saw the regression in my kids last time, and suspect it will happen again from tomorrow.
Closing schools is pure evil. The people pushing this are wicked.
