Parents and pupils are being asked to express their gratitude to staff in Jewish schools as they wrestle with the demands of teaching during the pandemic.

PaJeS, the Jewish Leadership Council’s schools network, is asking people to record their thanks on a designated page online.

Schools. PaJeS said, have “coped with endless government U-turns, unclear information, anxious colleagues and parents, all while trying to deliver the best possible educational provision for their pupils.

“Currently they are educating alarming numbers of vulnerable children in school as well as providing remote learning.”

It was “time we recognised and applauded the incredible efforts of our educational providers”.

“They may not appear to be on the front line as NHS workers are. However, there is no doubt that they are making incredible sacrifices and playing an exceptional part in the fight against Covid”.
