Yep!  

So, at present, onsite prac is 100% off the table.  If VCAA moves on that, then it’d be permissible to travel to accommodate work.

At the moment though, admin, facilities, operations and maintenance, and supervising staff for essential workers are really the only people have reason to continue to be on-site from the advice given so far.  Note the term “supervise” not “teach”.  It can be anyone with a WWCC at this point, and in many school contexts probably will be, and the emphasis isn’t on educating but on maintaining a safe environment while they undertake flexible work.

At the moment, we are stuck.

Yes but haven’t we been told that “all students are to move to remote learning and schools are to remain open for vulnerable children and children of permitted workers.”

It would not be.  

Travelling for work purposes, where that work cannot be completed remotely, is completely within the rules and hasno limitations on distance.  However you would need to have a permit stating the need for the work to be conducted at school (direct supervision of practical activities), and your school would need to corroborate and control that – as would the DHHS and VCAA and DEECD, which I don’t see happening yet, or maybe at all.

In the end though, travel for work is exempt, but only for essential work that cannot be conducted from home.  It’s not illegal to drive to school.

Hi Craig,
 
Yes this would be a breach of the rules and against the Victorian law I think. I cant imagine this happening.

Hi all
 
If you intend coming into school during the stage 4 lockdown period to do practical work with year 12s. I hope you live 5km from your work and your students do as well? Otherwise big fines may apply.
 
Regards

Hi Liz, it’s hard to see how the coming weeks will plan out. Maybe yr 12 students doing prac subjects as ours will be allowed to go in for an afternoon once a week for production. Who knows at this stage. I know that most of my students don’t have sewing machines etc at home so production will come to a halt. Just as we were getting in to it! So this week and next its writing up about tools and equipment, risk assessment tables and SAC no. 3. As for yr 11 ……………………………….

Hi All,
 
  
 
Those teaching Year 11 and 12 will no doubt be as depressed as I am with todays news. It took VCAA several weeks to come up with a solution to the last lockdown. Is anyone foreseeing what might happen with this scenario?
 
Mr Year 11’s are also compromised as I did both Unit 1 and 2 folios first semester and presently working on Unit 2 production atm.
 
It’s a nightmare. Poor kids, I feel for them all.
 
  
 
Take care,
 
Liz
