Chicken pox

I know this must have been done a hundred and one times but, my daughter first came out in the chicken pops (her words) last sat/sun. She had a very bad dose of them. Tomorrow she has her first proper school visit for a few hours. Now that's would have been a good week and a half she's had them. They have all crusted over. She had them mostly on her face. She has been left with a slight redness but the spots have more or less gone. Would it be ok to take her to school? Would a pharmacist be able to tell me. I don't want to take her to school then get told to take her home. Thanks

If they are scabbed over she is no longer contagious

Thanks, that will be 12 days tomorrow since the spots appeared. This was her last Monday. I don't want her to miss her school induction.
