Not Going To School Due To Corona – What Now?.

Not Going To School Due To Corona – What Now?.

The corona measures have ended in the Netherlands. Yet some students still cannot go to school fully because of corona. These students follow the same route as all other students who are sick. The starting point is a tailored education offer for all students who cannot fully attend school for medical reasons.

At home because of corona

This concerns students who have a higher risk from a corona infection, students with family members at higher risk, and students with post-COVID. For these children, corona remains a contagious and dangerous virus. Another reason to stay home can be uncertainty about the long-term medical effects of a corona infection. We also find it important for children’s development that they get education and social contact with peers.

Agreements with school

Discuss together – school, student, parents, and any experts involved – how the student can follow as much education as possible. Make agreements on when the student goes to school physically. Sometimes adjustments are needed, like good ventilation or a changed schedule. If a student cannot go to school fully, then partly replacement education is needed. Parents can ask the youth doctor all their questions. Do you want to know how to contact a youth doctor? Your municipality or school can help.

Too tired

In the Netherlands there are an estimated thousands of children with post-COVID. Little is known about the treatment yet. On EenVandaag (avrotros) there is a report about Sandra’s 9-year-old daughter who can only go to school for three hours a day because she is too tired.
