Prime Minister Scott Morrison has thanked Australian teachers as he calls on them to keep classrooms operating with students preparing to start term two.

Prime Minister Scott Morrison has taken to social media to ask the nation's teachers to keep classrooms open, especially for the children of essential workers who cannot be effectively homeschooled.

"We will lose many things in the course of fighting this virus. One thing that I know teachers are united on, with their parents, is we do not want one of those things to be the loss of a child's education, giving up a whole year of their learning."He thanked teachers for their efforts to keep classes going, in many cases online, while the COVID-19 pandemic continues.

"Quite rightly, state and non-government education authorities are working on how to support and protect those teachers who continue with classroom learning, or having other arrangements in place for them."

So are we going to test the students and teachers who do turn up to school? Are we putting any measures in place to ensure that students and teachers remain safe? Or do we need to have an outbreak in a school for this to happen?

They never closed them.

They are open!!

don't worry dude. our classroom is all open for business and we already told our students to stay at home.

Classrooms remained open it’s just that parents were encouraged to keep students at home if they could. It should stay this way until parliament sits again.

Keep the online stuff going for children who can be at home. Has been working great for our school and the teachers are doing an amazing job.

Confused by his message as schools are open for students with essential worker parents

Hey ScottMorrisonMP how about the teachers go back when you do? openparliament

Sooo are his kids still in school? Or just enrolled?

Here is goes again right on cue. One rule for some, another rule for others.

Jen not handling the girls being at home?

One cynically wonders if ScottMorrisonMP is building a future case to decrease school funding for the states that don’t reopen their schools fully to all students 🤬
