• A half term holiday dilemma:

    We have a week booked in France for half term to see family, booked as soon as we found out what the half term dates were. 2 weeks quarantine on our return, which we have experienced already when we came back from France at the end of August. Our daughter is in reception year, so she most likely won't miss anything very important. However, 2 weeks at home after relative freedom almost drove us insane last time.
    How are schools likely to respond? Wife is due back from maternity a week or so after half term, so being in quarantine is unlikely to be the way she wants to spend the last week before returning.

    Anyone know if there are any measures planned for testing to reduce quarantine duration?

  • Dont know where you are going but France is a bit of a mess right now. I wouldn’t be visiting my family there now unless it was serious. That said, from the outside the UK is barely better so.... who knows?

  • I think your dilemma could be solved by looking at this global pandemic from a perspective other than your own.

  • If there's going to be a full lockdown/'circuit break' it'll be around 1/2 term to avoid messing with schools and parents too much

  • It’s not a dilemma really. You just shouldn’t even be thinking about going. It’s that simple. Also, you already know this.
