LEAVE

As most children in this town live in a close knit community where family ceremonies are frequent, we are compelled to make general clarifications about requests for leave which the school finds acceptable.

These are as follows :

Weddings of siblings, aunts, uncles and first cousins.

Engagement of siblings.

Baptism of siblings.

Your own house-warming ceremony.

Death of a very close relative.

A visit to a place that would enhance knowledge.

Religious festivals.

Parents are requested to send formal written leave letters to cover leave taken by their child. Notes written on scraps of paper are not acceptable. The general rule is to suspend a pupil for an equal number of days of absence not sanctioned by the school. You are welcome to take leave for any occasion you may consider absolutely necessary, provided, you accept the suspension which will follow, because your concept of “absolutely necessary” may not agree with the school.

PRIVATE TUITIONS

Private tuitions are not allowed. Any student taking private tuition will not be allowed to attend regular classes in that particular subject. This applies to all classes. We believe that over-teaching of routine school subjects is dangerous. An exception is made only for the Plus Two students who intend to appear for the Entrance examination for admission to Medical and Engineering courses.

NOTICE OF WITHDRAWAL

One full term's notice of withdrawal should be given in lieu of which one term's fees shall be charged. The expression "term" does not include the holiday months of April and May.
