Student's Code of Conduct
- We expect our students to possess exemplary courtesy in their behavior and speech.
- We expect our students to follow the uniform code of the institution and be examples to each other in neatness and tidiness. A check on uniforms will be conducted twice a week.
- We expect our students to be respectful towards Teachers, Principal, Management and all the Enablers in the institution. The norms of body language, behavior, ethics etc. taught to them in this institution will be followed both in letter and spirit.
- We expect our students to follow an honor code for which the major responsibility of its implementation will rest with the students themselves.
- We expect our students to be role models in punctuality. Students who avail public transport should report to school by 9:00am failing which disciplinary action will be taken.
- We expect our students to be kind towards their fellow students.
- We expect our students to respect the property of this institution. Heavy fines will be imposed on the student for any damage done to school property.
- Students, who wish to leave school early before dispersal time, must produce a letter of confirmation from the parents stating reasons for the same. Permission will be withheld if this is not adhered to.
- An early dispersal form should be filled by the student and signed by the class teacher.
- Students are expected to state reasons for their absence from school. Permission for long leave need to be sought. A leave note and a fitness certificate, in case of medical reasons must be provided via intranet or a note in the almanac to the class teacher.
- Any kind of electronic gadget including cell phones is not allowed in the classroom. Such gadgets, if found, will be confiscated, and will not be returned. However, if the parent feels that his/her ward must carry an electronic gadget (a simple mobile device), prior permission of the school Principal would be necessary. This permission will be granted for exceptional cases only. Parents are requested to take note that even in such cases where permission is granted, the student is expected to carry a simple mobile device and no smart phones will be allowed. The device will remain switched off during the school hours and is required to be handed over to the class teacher, as soon as the student reports to school.
- Video camera, digital camera and any other digital device with camera is not permitted inside the school premises. If found, it will be confiscated, and will not be returned.
