Still, I hear many teachers had "snow days" lucky them.
Our school wasn't closed due to people not being able to get it, it was all health and safety. It's all well and good parents arguing that kids should be at school no matter of the weather, but what if their child falls over and breaks a bone, you can't win. We have had one member of staff break their wrist in two places, and a local school which was open had numerous injuries.

BTW im not a teacher so i didn't get as much time off, as soon as i could walk to my office without falling over i was in.
