Teachers Isn't Learning, Innit?

Jackie, a black British teacher at a school in south-east London which is due to reopen next month, said she felt like she was in limbo due to the lack of government advice on the specific risks the virus posed to BAME pupils and staff.
“They have not addressed it properly,” she added. “We’re not being told what the risk is. Am I more vulnerable because of my age and ethnicity? I would like to have the evidence.”
The very newspaper you're whining to about this says 'Yes'. What more do you need?

    How difficult is it to find this stuff out for yourself?

    Then there are the bald, the mass challenged, those who identify as male,
    the sinistral.
    We must be told.
    I made the last one up.

    And this person is supposed to be a teacher. I know education has been going down since the late 50s but...

    It appears the old adage - 'those that can, do - those that can't, teach' is truer today than in the past.

    Yes, she is more vulnerable because of her ethnicity - to racial paranoia, self-afflicted victimhood and any number of pathologies.

    "How difficult is it to find this stuff out for yourself?"

    That's not how modern teaching works, now, is it? ;)

    "Yes, she is more vulnerable because of her ethnicity - to racial paranoia, self-afflicted victimhood and any number of pathologies."
