Do I still need to wear a mask on campus?

What kind of masks are advised on campus?

The new government advice is to wear type 2 masks only, given that cloth and home-made masks have proven to be less effective against new variants. These are non-woven masks of synthetic material that are more effective at blocking very small particles. Examples are European FFP2, US N95, Chinese KN95. These are unfortunately disposable, but much more effective at limiting virus spread.

When does ASH advise self-testing?

Students and staff should only test when having symptoms.

Self-test for students and faculty will be available for pick up in the divisional offices. Staff can pick up self-tests at the health care office.

After a positive test you need to self-isolate. Avoid infecting others by staying home. Remember to keep your distance to prevent infecting the people you live with.

There's no need to test at the GGD; a positive self-test is enough. For more information see: https://mijnvraagovercorona.nl/en

What to do with a self-test result?

What should be done after your child has taken a self-test?
The result will be known about 15 - 30 minutes after the test.

Is the result positive?
If someone in your household has coronavirus, the other family members can still go outside and go to school or work if they don’t have any symptoms. If they do have symptoms they should stay at home and do a self-test. If this self-test is positive the person must self-isolate. If it is negative you do not need to self-quarantine. However, in order to combat the spread of the virus, it is important to be extra careful. Avoid contact with people in at-risk groups for 10 days and if you develop any symptoms, do another test. If you test positive, you must always self-isolate.

Is the result negative?
Then no Covid-19 virus has been found in your child. Your child can go to school as usual. Your child must still adhere to all Covid-19 rules at school.

Our ASH Roadmap

Our Learning Roadmap

Our Learning Roadmap offers an overview of what school at ASH may look like during the 2021-2022 school year:

On-campus Learning
Hybrid Learning
Virtual Learning

As the circumstances mandate, we are ready to flexibly pivot across these 3 models ensuring the continuity of engaging and flexible learning that is responsive to the current pandemic. These three models are independent and exclusive. At any single moment, we will only operate in one of these three models. Each model comes with adapted social-emotional programs and child protection policies to support the mental and physical well-being of our students as they learn at school or at home.

Since the start of the new school year we follow our on-campus learning model.

Global conditions and government responses are dynamic with frequent changes. At ASH, we will continue to follow the guidelines of the Dutch government and prioritize the health and safety of our community.
