CorrectNot quiteAnswer C

Correct answer: C

Q names the subject and opens a "who" clause, and "had" needs a past form: S "been ill for a week,".
Then the teacher's own verb: T "returned to school", and P adds a second event, completed by R.
So the order is QSTPR: "The teacher, who had been ill for a week, returned to school and was welcomed with flowers by her students."

Worth noting

QTSPR puts "returned to school" straight after "who had", which leaves "been ill for a week" floating after it.
