        @BBCNews as a teacher, i question how effective 5 inset days in a row will be, and the impact on planning and implementing courses

        @BBCNews inset days week off is great idea. Schools must vary the week off or hol companies will cotton on to dates and hike the price

        @BBCNews We never had 'inset' days when I was at school in 1970s/early 1980s. What ARE they? I don't have kids, so am bit ignorant on this.

        @BBCNews but it would be better if teachers also had this time off so they could go on holiday with their families

        @BBCNews -getting all the schools in one area to take the same week off would help, too
