As fresh incidents emerge, parents and teachers may keep a few things in mind to keep children safe at school and at home. During the third wave of the pandemic, there were no cases of post-viral inflammatory syndrome in children, which was a huge relief. Since we are currently developing vaccinations for children, we must guarantee that they are protected against coronavirus.
With schools around the country now open, personnel must ensure that children, particularly tiny children in primary and middle school who have not yet been vaccinated in India, are seated at appropriate distances. While it is impossible to ensure that children in elementary schools are constantly disguised, health experts believe that the separation might be crucial in preventing coronavirus from spreading among them. Staff must ensure that youngsters are separated by at least one, if not two, hand distances.
During in-person schooling, tactics to induce social separation might include:
- Getting rid of lockers or organizing them into student groups or cohorts
- Creating one-way traffic in school corridors
- When feasible, use outside locations for education, meals, and recess.
- Reduce the number of students riding school buses
- Putting desks in a row and facing them all in the same direction
- Separating instructors and pupils using physical obstacles such as plexiglass shields and partitions
- Students are divided into various groups or cohorts that stay together during the school day, decreasing contact between groups.
- Consider these suggestions if your child’s school mandates or encourages the usage of face masks.
- Face masks should be used whenever social distance is difficult to maintain, such as on the bus, at carpool drop-off or pickup, and while entering the building.
- Have a variety of face masks on hand for your youngster. Every day, give your child a clean mask and a backup mask, as well as a clean, resealable bag to put the mask in when they can’t wear it, like at lunch.
- Label your child’s mask clearly so it doesn’t get mixed up with another child’s.
- With your youngster, practice carefully putting on and removing face masks while avoiding touching the textile areas.
- Remind your youngster to wash their hands before and after handling their mask
