Jason Dorday/Stuff Auckland Grammar School principal Tim O'Connor said if Year 12 and 13 students weren't back on campus in a week, "we're in big trouble". Stuff While schools have had to have their own pandemic plans in place, Auckland Grammar headmaster Tim O'Connor said the Ministry of Education has failed by not having a national plan in place during Covid-19. "If we don't get Year 12 and 13 students back on campus within a week, we're in trouble," O'Connor added.
