Hi, welcome to HCM.
Since, headache is occurring when child comes to home from school, he could be suffering from tension headache, weak eyesight or refractive error, or the child has got common cold.
In my opinion, you should give ibuprofen syrup 15 mg/kg for headache and get the eyes examined by an opthalmologist for refractive error.
Revert back with above reports.
I hope this will help you.
Take care.
