By Samuel Adebara on July 16th, 2020
It is important that teachers encourage and help students to develop the habit and practice of keeping themselves clean as a means of maintaining good health and also protecting the health of others. Personal hygiene will help students stay healthy, ward off illnesses, and build better self-awareness. Protecting the health of their students and helping them to manage their personal hygiene routine is among the most important duties of teachers.
Here are a few strategies that schools can undertake to help promote students hygiene:
- Provision of soaps and other hygiene enhancement materials.
- Schools have a responsibility to provide appropriate hand hygiene facilities. Liquid soaps, hand dryer or paper towels, alcohol based hand sanitizer are essential facilities needed to promote the personal hygiene routines of students.
- Hand hygiene education. Schools should integrate hand hygiene sensitization into the school curriculum and daily School activities.
- Schools should develop a personal hygiene care and learning plan to reinforce the need of good hygiene practices among students.
- Teachers should undergo special trainings in the methods of teaching personal care skills.
