Attendance

  • Students must be punctual at the beginning of the day for all subject classes and activities. Attendance at morning assembly is compulsory.
  • For every absence, a written statement signed by the parent/guardian (with full name written) is required on the day the pupil returns. If a student is absent for more than three days for reasons of ill health, a certificate from a registered medical practitioner is required stating illness and fitness.
  • A student who arrives late will be required to bring an explanatory note from parents.
  • All explanatory notes for absence/late arrival should be handed over to the class teacher. No one, who is late or has been absent on the previous day, will be admitted to the class without the permission of the Principal.
  • Students late for the third time will be sent home and considered absent.
  • Students who are regularly sick and fall short of the required 85% of attendance may be asked to leave the School on grounds of physical unfitness.
  • Half-day leave is not permitted. Students will not be allowed to leave school early unless parents/guardian presents a written note to the Principal for reasons of emergency.
  • Attendance on the first day of the School after vacation is absolutely essential. A fine of Rs 25/- for each day of absence may be imposed on those absent from the first day. Those absent due to illness must inform the school either before or on the reopening day and present a medical certificate before they are admitted to class. Pupils who do not join school on the first day without any information are liable to forfeit their places. Readmission may be considered. The names of pupils who remain absent without leave for six consecutive days may be struck off the rolls. A punitive fine may be imposed on late comers as a measure of exemplary punishment.
