Background: The Latin term "scab ere," which means to scratch, is the source of the English word "scabies." The name Sarcoptesscabiei comes from the Greek words "sark" (to smite or to cut) An exceedingly tiny arthropod is known as Sarcoptesscabiei or Acarusscabiei. The bare eye can hardly make it out. Sized at 0.4 millimetres. It is an ectoparasite of humans, where it breeds and lives while spreading the scabies disease. The arachnid Sarcoptes scabiei and the Itch mites are responsible for the highly contagious skin condition known as scabies. Itching that is worse at night, papules, vesicles, and pustules in the preferred site are used to diagnose
Objectives:
1) To evaluate the pre-test knowledge level in regards to preventing and managing scabies amid the primary school teachers.
2) To evaluate the effectiveness of teaching that is planned in regards to preventing and managing scabies amid the school teachers of the chosen primary school.
3) To identify the post-test knowledge level in regards to preventing and managing scabies amid the primary school teachers with the chosen demographic variables.
Methods and Materials: - In this study, a quantitative research style was employed. The sample size for this quantitative research is 43. The research will be carried out at a primary school in a rural community.
Result: Primary school instructors from a selected school are being studied in this study. As the five per cent level of significance, this is much less than the calculated 'F' value of 5.36. In addition, the resulting 'p'=0.003 was significantly lower than the acceptable, Importantly 'p'=0.05. It is stated that primary school teachers' age is connected to their after-the-test knowledge score.
Conclusion: The current pre-experimental study aided in determining. The success of organised training on scabies prevention and treatment knowledge between primary school teachers in a chosen school. The study's findings also shed light on evolving standards regarding scabies awareness among elementary school teachers.
