Covid-19 priority: Teachers push to be moved up queue for vaccination faces resistance

The Irish National Teachers’Organisation (INTO) is pushing for potential industrial action in May or June. Secondary teachers’ unions are reluctant to disrupt the Leaving Cert and say any action would likely be early in the new academic year. However, Government and health service sources believe such a move would result in pressure for similar arrangements for tens of thousands of retail and transport workers, among others. Medical advice A Government spokesman said on Monday the latest vaccination sequencing is “based on medical advice to protect the most medically vulnerable in society”. “The evidence has shown age is by far the biggest factor in serious illness, hospitalisation and mortality due to Covid-19,” the spokesman said.

Teachers believe remote learning has led some students to disengage

Teachers believe remote learning has led some students to disengage Extra supports will be needed next year to assist vulnerable students, survey finds Tue, Apr 6, 2021, 01:00 Your Web Browser may be out of date. If you are using Internet Explorer 9, 10 or 11 our Audio player will not work properly.   More than 90 per cent of secondary school teachers say some students have disengaged as a result of the move to remote teaching and learning, according to a new survey. The findings are contained in a poll of more than 1,000 Teachers’ Union of Ireland members, which was carried out last month. The survey indicates the vast majority of teachers (76 per cent) believe remote learning had a disproportionately negative effect on students from disadvantaged backgrounds, while a similar proportion believe additional supports are needed for 2021-2022 to assist those students who have lost out most.
