Paying them anyway and they could still be contributing by running the programs I mentioned.
Just to clarify my own position, if they close the Schools I'm out of a job, that's a significant economic hit to us but on the positive side it eliminates 2 sources of possible contact with the virus, firstly I wouldn't come in contact with the children of 9 families directly any of whom could in their daily lives come in contact with it.
Secondly, if I wasn't in this position I'd seriously consider taking my kids out of school to again reduce the avenues to contracting it and in doing so help prevent my Wife coming down with it and unsuspectingly taking it to her workplace.
I can't justify eliminating this possible source whilst I'm still exposed to the former and it would also see my children disadvantaged in terms of education compared to those who continue on under Scomo's current guidelines.
