Victorian Health Minister Jenny Mikakos announced a Melbourne primary school teacher has tested positive to COVID-19"This staff member has been on site recently ... which is why it is necessary for the school needs to be cleaned," Health Minister Jenny Mikakos told reporters on Sunday.Melbourne primary school teacher tests positive to coronavirus
"If this is not addressed promptly and directly, learning gaps can emerge and widen," contributing author and UNSW professor Andrew Martin said. Factors impacting the success of remote learning include digital access, home environment, family support, teacher and student readiness and capability.Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children are likely to face particular challenges with remote learning because of poor internet service, device availability, less interaction with indigenous teachers and the absence of culturally appropriate teaching in online resources.
He took it back
I think the Morrison government should be more concerned about recalling parliament and setting the example and sending his children to public school
Disgraceful attack uncalled for un warranted .shows what a clown this Scomo govt minister is .another reason not to download the app.just don't trust this mob.
Shifty as a shithouse rat just like his boss.
Wanker
It's the only strategy liberal party has. They attack because they have no moral ground to defend
If you want to see a FailureOfLeadership look at ScottyFromMarketing Not our next PM DanielAndrewsMP
DanielAndrewsMP has taken the best decision in the interest of Victorians , obviously because he is not seeking political benefits but placing Victorians first !! He obviously doesn’t want to see a rise and possible lockdown again so will wait to take the decisiontoendlockdown
Not for long.
No. The LNP sent a boy on a man’s job in Tehan. Dan the B grader attacks Andrews but BAM! The teacher with C19 drops Tehan in the shit. Yep.
Has the Morrison government spoken directly to teachers? 🤔 makessense
LadyPoop2 The LNP is full of bullies. Back of you thugs.
Dan Tegan is obsolete an IPA hack
DansTheMan
Pretty obvious that Dan Tehan wants to use kids from poor & indigenous backgrounds as COVID guinea pigs. If things go wrong, they won't care if those people suffer.
That worked out well then !!
crabwalk 🦀🦀🦀🦀🦀
A “failed” attack. You left out “failed”.
For God sake will someone think of the money that will be harmed.
Dan Tehan has the hide to say that teachers aids can step in and do some of the teaching when teachers are supposed to be in the classroom and on line teaching at the same time. They have no qualifications for this. Disgraceful from an Education Minister
Public schools are under state control and funding by states ... Morrison has even said that ... disgraceful comments from Tehan This was blatant attack on a state premier who's doing a far better job than the Federal Government!
Very comforting to know that one of the dumbest people in the land is the federal Education minister. He is the equivilant of betsy De Voss in the usa. Dumb as dog shit.🙊🐕🦺
Ummm a teacher in a Victorian school was tested positive and now the school is closed . I wonder where that scientific report that is peer reviewed by scientists around the world is to tell us to send our kids back to school !
Best for all concerned for the Fed. Government to control education and health till the dust settles in this crisis......using kids as a political tool by Andrews is nothing but ego.
We should get of our arses, and should never have been on them in the first place. It's a bad flu, lethal to some, like many flu's in the past. In fact there was a particularly bad one going around in December. You all do realise that mosquitos have killed more people. It's a con
FatherBob They were always going to revert to the bottom of the political barrel.
I do not live in Victoria or have kids school age. So what is happening in Australia and Victoria re schools is not important to me. In saying that if Victorian parents do not want to send their kids to school so what?
Are you going to give equal airtime to the humiliating backdown?
As they should.
Distracting from the unceasing cavalcade ofLNP incompetence and corruption. We live Dan. Stick a sock in it
Aaaand then retracted it a few hours later. LiberalChaos
Guess what SBS.... In a statement, DanTehanWannon has withdrawn his criticism of DanielAndrewsMP’s leadership on InsidersABC this morning. The Minister says he “overstepped the mark” out of frustration.
Tehan is a fool but an obedient foot soldier His gun jammed & has blown up in his face
scomo watched too much MrTrump on SkyNews 🤣
Andrews has done a great job. Why hasn't Dutton been held accountable for the Ruby Princess disaster?
Bad timing for a backflip and that’s an understatement!
'It's safe for schools to be open and it is safe for teachers to be in the classroom when the right protocols are in place,' Mr Tehan insisted. WHAT PROTOCOLS?
One look at Dan and you know, He is limited.
I’m so impressed with DanielAndrewsMP and his leadership as Victoria’s Premier. You’re doing a wonderful job.
Do you think they might be upset that Dan Andrews popularity just shot way up?
The Marketing dept needs to sit down and shut up
geeksrulz Tehan can shove it
Attacking someone concerned about the long term safety of teachers and children. Really?
SDHamiltonVIC Ask him what the Capital of Africa is!
Piss off DanTehanWannon
So they should. Why would dopey Dan want to prolong the damage being done to the education of Victorian children Playing politics with children’s education, lowest of the low!!
The attack dog has been unleashed.
Typical narcissist actions and thinking. Undermine the person who has a stance in contradiction to your own, name calling and coercing others to be a mouthpiece for your vitriol. I'm amazed he hasn't been called out by a psych. Playing the person not the ball. Pm a sore loser.
Disappointing, arrogant Govt, not interested in listening, only bribing, there's the real lack of leadership
SDHamiltonVIC States control schools Federal Gov controls cruise ships
Can’t wait for the next election Danny boy
peasley_mark The division begins which could lead to our downfall. If we are all in this together, then let’s do it.
peasley_mark Like being slapped with a lettuce leaf. He is just the dope they send out to argue the Liberal political failures.
FatherBob Uncalled for
Leftist will always contradict try to pervert the course of justice like in the case of Cardinal Pell and now they try to provoke the federal government
It’s like a chipmunk attacking a lion. Apologies to all chipmunks.
FatherBob Tehan should resign. Playing politics with the lives of young children, incompetent, ill advised and plain wrong.
What about the school which is about to close for 3 days because teacher tested + answer that TEHAN Andrews is correct
Dan Tehan thinks Africa is a country. I would rather take advice from a talking cat than this clown.
Scomo, Dan Tehan and the rest of that rabble should just shut the hell up. We know that anyone including children can get coronavirus and yet you want schools to reopen but not practice social distancing etc etc but still expect it out in public.
What a Disgusting Echo Chamber Dan Tehan is ... both He n Morrison n look like Low Minded Bullies. There no Glory in Blame. Glory lies in Leadership n Collaborative Teamwork.
Shut up Dan Tehan.
How pathetic is Scott Morrison using his attack dogs on Daniel Andrews. Morrison a gutless wonder. Gets others to do his dirty work. If it goes wrong Morrison can blame them.
They just want to deliver message we want, not hard ones. Coming from the tough on borders government who let in the ruby prince.
Federal LNP is full of crooks who can’t be trusted. I’ll trust DanielAndrewsMP thanks.
You snooze, you lose.
I don't usually agree with the Morrison Gov, on education i do. Following home schooling, it's ok as a temporary measure BUT no where near the real thing. Lots are not logging on 48 per cent, that is alarming. Why are we not listening to our medical team.
This is not a news story. The pathetic, dangerous point-scoring and bullying of federal incompetents. Why amplify their idiocy?
nobby15 Has Morrison sent his kids to school yet?
Lancet is good, DanTehanWannon is bad so is opening schools.
Well done, DanTehanWannon you muppet. Livelihoods over lives. How's that humble pie tasting?
political_alert Minutes before the announcement that a real teacher,in a real Victorian school, has tested positive, and the school is closed. Idiot.
I bet those against it are not parents themselves. My kids are not able to learn as much as they are in the school, no interaction, unlike school home doesn’t have the “school feel”. This is the feed back from my kids. Ask any parents the hope of returning school is real !
How about 'Tehan embarrassed as attempt to skewer Andrews backfires spectacularly'.
Stand firm Daniel.
Dan Tehran f&$k off
Not sure if this the right time play the blame game. PM clearly stated in one of press con that the schools fall within the jurisdictions of the state government. Schools need to be reopened, but gradually and systematically.
Huh, there you go:
Victoria is under union control now, lots of people are going to loose their job permanently
This is NOT politics, it is lives..... When will you ever be in it for the people ScottMorrisonMP !!
The hidden agenda of the Morrison government. Expectation-Education : Reality-child minding service Expectation-Kids aren't spreaders : Reality-just if not more than adults. The reason we are better off is: It's summer, fewer tourists because of fires and Schools being off.
SitTheFuckDown I have more respect for a man who is using his wits than small, minuscule amounts of study regarding outbreaks in schools. IStandWithDanAndrews kids are adaptable and can withstand this short term pain of not loosing one of their teachers!
Now they 'care' about the vulnerable and underprivileged? Riiiiiight
What is this? Feds made very clear that not all states have to follow same pattern. So why so much pressure. Is this the deal they made with Donald and his mob?
Reopen our state boarders domestic travel and parliament's fully for full siting days.its illegal unlawful under the commonwealth Australia constitution UK 1901 to close our parliament's and country state boarders for travel.serve the Australian pepole
And a school in Vic has closed due to the virus.
Why the push by the federal government? Are children not humans? No cure, no vaccine. Go figure. 🙄
He’s useless. DanAndrews is right!
Yeah. But the RubyPrincess debacle is all okay, right Teehan?
He would, wouldn’t he?
DanielAndrewsMP is leading the way 🌟
Lowest of the low. Fear and division are the only strategy in the LNP playbook. Nothing they hate more than seeing others exercise effective leadership. The contrast is too much for them to bear.
Nothing better to do?
Dan Tegan wouldn’t know if his arse were on fire. He’s a mouthpiece.
Well done DanTehanWannon. A school has closed because of the spread of COVID 19 but don’t let up on the politics. It’s about the economy and nothing to do with health.
A Victorian school is being closed due to a teacher contracting Covid19. I wonder how many kids are now taking that home.
political_alert Yawn
Well Tehan and Morrison can have a sook session on their own. Schools are State controlled for a reason
This government really needs to start being called out for their bullsh*t. Vulnerable children has never been a priority for LNP policy objectives.
Just open the schools up already. Daniel Andrews is a crook and a clown.
I reckon they should be more concerned about his relations with China. He is a rogue Premier and a clear danger to Australia
I thought scotty said it was up to the states to decide and that's what daniels is doing so why the fucking stupid attack on him?
Schools should open. Stop the insanity
And the war begins
Pushed by the liberal opposition in Victoria, who are just suffering from being irrelevant
I know who I trust more and it’s certainly not Morrison et al.
How about the federal government takes a quick look-see at the Constitution, and gets back in their lane.
DictatorDan
Followed by a Covid19 cluster being announced at a Vic school. Pity Tehan did not get slammed with this news
The more Morrison pushes this the more trust he looses among healthcare workers and teachers.
