  1. DIC values of the different models considered. Model CGS has three different transmission rates inside the school (q c , q g and q s ). Model S has a homogeneous infection rate inside the school (q c ). Model CS has a transmission rate for the class (q c ) and a different transmission rate in the remaining part of the school (q g ). Model CGSvar is the same as CGS but with a non-constant ε
