Students should be trained to use toilets properly. This leaves the space clean and ready for the next user. There are many cases where girls attain puberty while at school. This should be handled in a very delicate way - lady teachers should prepare them mentally for this phase and instill a sense of confidence to deal with it themselves. Every classroom should have a first aid kit and sanitary pads. Toilets should have disposal cans with lids, emptied at frequent intervals.
