It is a matter of deep concern that parents allow children suffering from infectious ailments to attend classes or examinations. Such conduct can result in an epidemic outbreak in the school.
A child should be medically examined at the first sign of any rash/fever and should be sent to school only on the advice of a doctor. After recovery from an infectious ailment, a child should remain at home for the period of quarantine as advised by a doctor. On return to school, a medical fitness certificate, duly signed by a doctor should be submitted to the Class Teacher.
Quarantine period recommended for -
| Chicken pox |
3 weeks (till the complete falling of scabs) |
| Measles |
2 weeks |
| Mumps |
2 weeks |
| Conjunctivitis |
1 weeks |
| Jaundice |
4 weeks |
| Covid |
2 weeks |
If children come to school with infectious disease, they will be sent back home. A student must be medically fit to attend school.
During tests/assignments/examinations if the child is ill, please do not send him/her for the test. A student must be healthy enough to be in the school for the whole day. In case a child is ill, a medical certificate must be provided.
