Two teachers from the same school in ICU

TWO teachers from the same primary school are fighting for their lives in the ICU after contracting coronavirus

Two staff members from the Anchorsholme Academy primary school in Blackpool are in a critical condition at Victoria Hospital’s intensive care unit after being diagnosed with coronavirus.

Graeme Dow, who is in charge of Anchorsholme Academy, in Thornton-Cleveleys, Blackpool, said: “Sadly, I have also had the news that two members of staff from Blackpool schools are currently in ICU [Intensive Care Unit] at Blackpool Victoria Hospital.

“This reminds us how real the threat of Covid can be and how essential it is that we maintain the hand – face – space guidance.”

Many have argued that both primary and secondary schools should have been closed during the second national lockdown, but the National Association of Headteachers felt it was “right to prioritise keeping pupils in school”.
