The statement further noted thus, “students or teachers who feel sick are advised not to come to school, but seek medical help.

”The government will not tolerate lateness on the part of the students or teachers just as students caught loitering during school hours will be punished.

School authorities are advised to ensure teachers complete their scheduled curriculum for the term in compliance with the State Government’s directive.”
