Why Are Clean Classrooms Important?
Clean Classroom Keep Students Healthy
How Do Germs Spread?
The expert school cleaners at Total Focus Cleaning recognise that germs can be spread in 3 basic pathways — direct contact, indirect contact or through the air.
Direct transmission occurs from person-to-person contact. For example, if students are working or playing together closely, germs and bacteria will be easily transmitted to and from one another.
Indirect transmission happen through germs and bacteria being spread to an item which is then picked up by another student. For example, children with a cold may cough into their hand then use it to open the door or pick up a toy. Whoever opens the door or picks up the toy next may become infected by the germs left behind.
Airborne transmission of germs happens when they travel between people through the air and not through direct or indirect contact. For example, when students don’t cover their sneezes and particles are expelled into the atmosphere.

Clean Classrooms Reduce Student Absences
Students who miss out on many school days because of sickness can suffer negative effects in terms of their learning journey. It’s been shown that poor attendance rates at Kindergarten and in Prep can reduce a child’s reading ability long-term and Grade 6 student who regularly miss school have a greater chance of dropping out of high school. An important factor in reducing student absences is keeping the classroom environment clean and germ-free as it helps ensure kids remain healthy and attend school.
It’s not just students who can contract an illness as a result of unclean classrooms. Teachers are just as likely to be susceptible to germs at their workplace. If teachers are absent, it can affect the learning process of all the kids in their class and lead to poorer test results and lower academic performance.
