KOLKATA: Schools have started reaching out to parents asking them not to send their wards to school in case they have fever, even on days they are supposed to take tests, which will be re-scheduled for the indisposed.
Covid cases are once again on the rise just when schools have resumed physical classes. Many private schools are now conducting either periodic tests or class tests. Parents and students are not ready to miss the tests as they are anxious about the impact on the report card at the end of the session. However, most school authorities are circulating notices to assure them that alternative arrangements will be made but with students running a temperature should not be sent to school.
