School Rules


The school is a community in which the Management, Students, Teachers and Parents are equal stakeholders. It is therefore important that all students, teachers and parents feel a sense of belongingness, and work to bring honour and glory to the school. We wish to build a culture of excellence and an ethos of pride and commitment, and encourage student participation and involvement in all school activities and events.

 Students are expected to be honest, polite and well-behaved at all times. Punctuality, regularity, courtesy to teachers and other staff, discipline and an over-riding respect for school rules are some of the qualities expected of each learner and the same are reflected in grades under the ‘Attitudes and Values’ column in the report cards.

Discipline

•  It is mandatory for every student to wear the I-Card to school. In case an I-Card is misplaced, a duplicate must be procured at the earliest from the class teacher against a payment of Rs.100.

   Pre Nursery-XII: Green I-Cards (for students using School Transport)
   Pre Nursery-XII: Yellow I-Cards (for Supervision students/students using Private Transport facility)

•  Parents are also required to wear the Parent I-Card to gain entry into school. In addition, parents are required to carry the Parent Supervision Card / Bus Card to pick up their ward from school/ Bus stop.

  Please note that the security guards will stop entry/exit of all defaulters.

•  Acts of indiscipline, particularly the use of foul language, the use of unfair means in a test, truancy, bunking, bullying, violence, stealing, carrying forbidden items, disrespect towards teachers and any other morally reprehensible behaviour will incur serious consequences.

•  Senior students and monitors have a special responsibility with regard to the discipline, as also the welfare of students, particularly the younger children.

•  Students are expected to respect the property of others. This includes respect for school property.

•  Damage caused by accident should be reported at once to the class teacher or to the Principal. Any damage done will be made good by the student. In case of wilful damage to school property the student will have to pay a fine as well as cost of repair/recovery of the goods damaged.

•  It is advisable not to bring valuable articles like expensive watches or pens to school. The school is not responsible for goods lost.

•  Wearing a smart watch, health band(s) etc. is not allowed. Students must not carry deodorants/ perfumes to school.

•  Carrying of mobile phones, cameras etc. is strictly prohibited. Failure to follow the rule will result in confiscation of the phone till the end of the school year along with a fine of Rs. 2000. However, the school forfeits all liability for loss or damage of the phone in this period.

•  Students are strictly forbidden to carry any kind of liquor, cigarettes, intoxicants, weapons, firearms or any such item that may cause hurt / injury to person or property. Failure to comply with this will be considered an unpardonable offence and strict action will be taken.
