• Put on the face mask without touching the mask itself.
• The nose clip is placed upwards and the blue side outwards.

• Avoid touching the face mask while wearing it.
• Always put the used face mask in a dustbin after use. Or put it in a small plastic bag if you are not near a dustbin.
• Sanitize your hands after disposing of the face mask.

You may reuse it if you fold it carefully with the blue side facing out. Place it in a small, clean plastic bag until you need to use it again.

• Wash your hands with water and liquid soap or use hand sanitizer. Sanitizer and soap are placed throughout the school.
• Wash/sanitize hands often.
• A thorough hand washing takes 45-60 seconds – see a film about hand washing (in Danish)

When should I stay home from school?

• If you have symptoms of illness – also mild symptoms such as a cold or a sore throat.
• If you get symptoms while at school, you must go home as quickly as possible.
• If you think, you have been in close contact with someone who is infected, you should stay home and get tested.

• Yes, if you are home due to Corona symptoms or to get tested for Corona, you must participate in lessons, e.g. by following on Teams or handing in assignments – arrange how with your teacher. This way you will not be marked absent.
• No, not if you are ill.

• If you have symptoms of Corona, you must get tested and stay home until you get your test result.
• If you are diagnosed with Corona, you must notify the school (+45 44942722). You must inform the school whether we may use your name in connection with information about your being diagnosed. The school informs your own class, your elective classes, and the teachers.   

If you have been sent home by the school, if you have symptoms, or if you are a close contact to someone ill and are waiting to be tested, you must inform the school about it ASAP. You must also write it as your absence reason (fraværsårsager) in Lectio. We will then, as quickly as possible, start up virtual teaching for you even if the rest of your class are in school. Teaching will be done as ’the art of the possible’ and will generally be done by the teacher or a fellow student logging on via the team link during class and informs you about the tasks.
If you are absent due to other illness, at the dentist, travelling or are truant, virtual teaching will not be possible.  

You must self-isolate and get tested four days after being exposed to infection. If this test is negative, you may come to school. However, you must also be tested on day six, and this test must also be negative.

You are considered a close contact if – within 48 hours before the person had symptoms/was tested – you have been close to the person in the following ways:

• You have had direct physical contact (e.g. hugging)
• You have had unprotected and direct contact with secretions (e.g. been coughed on, touched a used handkerchief, shared a water bottle, etc.)
• You have been close to a diagnosed person for more than 15 minutes at a distance of less than one metre (e.g. during conversation)
• You have been together with a diagnosed person for more than 15 minutes at a distance of less than two metres in one of the following situations:
  - Activities involving forceful exhalation, e.g. singing speaking loudly, or yelling 
  - Activities involving physical exertion, e.g. fitness or yoga
  - Spending time in closed rooms with poor ventilation

If you don’t have symptoms, you must self-isolate for 7 days after you took the test which gave a positive result. Then you are allowed to come to school. You don’t need to take another test.

Teachers are only required to wear a face mask/face shield in class if they teach more than two classes on the same day.

If you have one or more of the main symptoms of coronavirus – a fever, a dry cough, a sore throat, or a persistent headache – you must stay home and get tested. you must inform the school about it to the school email and by write it as your absence reason (fraværsårsager) in Lectio. You will then be offered virtual teaching even though the rest of your class are at school.
