[QUOTE="WelshMe83, post: 2284909, member: 527363"] I work in pretty much every school in my local authority. I had the first shielding letter but not an extension to it which would have lasted until August the 16th I believe. I have been allowed to work weekends instead of during the week to avoid contact with people. My GP said I can pay for the extension letter as its paid for work to get it written. I expressed my concern to management about going back nearly 6 months early and said about the letter but was told they would look into where they stand if I provided one. There's no point in arguing where I work so I went back early even though it makes me anxious just being there now. Come September time its business as usual and I'm expected to go back to mingling with staff and students in 80% of the schools in my area. Seriously considering handing my notice in. I don't think I'm more important than anyone, we are all equal but the facts show I'm more at risk than the rest of my colleagues. There's not really any way I can see for any social distancing in my workplace at all. But I get the feeling that as far as management are concerned work and profit come before safety. [/QUOTE]
