- Both parents and pupils should keep in mind the following
principles of discipline laid down in the Secondary Schools
Code (1979), Rule 56.
"Pupils should realise that they are responsible to the
school authorities not only for their conduct in school
but also for their general behaviour outside. any reported
or observed objectionable conduct out of school on the part
of pupils shall make them liable to disciplinary action.
Parents or guardians are given to understand that they cannot
dictate to the management and that the management has a
right to say on what conditions that they will admit or
retain pupils in their school."
Care is taken to ensure that no untoward mishap occurs while
your child is with us. However, acidents can occur, either
on the school premises, or while the children are on the
school bus, or at a picnic, the school will bear no financial
responsibility.
Likewise, if there is a problem in the city (eg. riots),
and parents feel that venturing outside the house is risky,
they are advised to keep their sons at home; or leave them
at school, at their own risk.
- Regular attendance is one of the conditions under which
a boy is admitted. No leave of absence is granted except
on previous written application from the parents/ guardians
and then only for serious reasons which should be mentioned.
Absence without leave renders a boy liable to a fine. Such
absence before or after holidays renders a boy liable to
be struck off the rolls.
Leave during school days will not be given for more than
three days at a time, except in cases of serious sickness,
or death in the family. Religious pilgrimages should be
planned for the period of holidays.
Those boys who absent themselves from school without
the knowledge of their parents/ guardians, will be liable
to severe disciplinary action or even dismissal. Should
such absence be during the time of Unit tests/exam, he will
be given 0 marks for the respective Unit Tests/Exam.

day of school or else have their names struck off the rolls.

bring a note in the Calendar from his parents/guardians
