Dubai Teachers Share Their Honest Feedback About The First Day Back At School
On August 30, Dubai schools will reopen for students, but teachers are already back on campus, prepping for the new academic year.
And following the first day back, in which schools are no doubt busy rolling out new COVID-19 protocols, Dubai’s KHDA thanked teachers for their work in a Tweet yesterday evening and asked them simply:
‘How was your day? How did it feel?’
First of all, we love the basic question to ask how people are feeling. Returning to work post-COVID can be a scary time, and teachers have had a lengthier time away from the workplace than most so it’s understandable why some people in the comments are cautious about returning. On the whole, however, the majority sound optimistic about the year ahead. Read the Tweets from Dubai teachers here:

Catching up on protocols and team building were some of the reasons teachers enjoyed being back
We had a great day @DubaiBritishFS – day of socially distanced team building and catching up on all the latest COVID protocols. A great buzz – we can’t wait to have the children and their families back #proudlytaaleem #backtoschool2020

And others put a question back to the KHDA, to ask them to consider teacher’s well-being too
as per the wellbeing of the children's due to current pandemic situation everyone have opted for e learning, but we as a teacher have family n children accompanied in our life who are left alone back home, we request the KHDA to consider us the teachers also

Some would like the same option of e-learning that student’s have
I have one question…
There is an option for students to choose weather they can learn blended option or complete online lecture..
Why doesn't teachers have that options..
As the numbers are still increasing in UAE now a days, need to think of teachers life as well..
