Rules & Regulations

SCHOOL RULES

We believe that the discipline and the academic performance are supplementary to each other. This school also believes that the effective learning take place in a conducive and stimulating environment, an environment where mutual respect and professional relationship exist between members of the family. In a big institution such as our school, creation of such enabling environment is possible where every member in the organization adheres to and follows a set of codes of conduct.

The Students Codes of Conduct or school rules and regulations therefore shall not only support and promote the teaching and student learning, they are also aimed at character building and personality development of our students. It is also to teach our students that they are living in the society ruled by the laws. Our students learn that school rules and regulation provide for the orderly operation of the school. Our young children must learn that when they are living in group, it is not always easy to get their own ways. A

However, the breach of any of the rules is an offence and shall call for disciplinary actions as per the discipline policy.
