A discipline committee will monitor the local implementation of the school rule policy and will report to the Principal on monthly basis.

DISCIPLINARY MEASURES

We at SHS do not believe in giving punishment to the children, however in case of gross misbehavior or breaching of school’s code of conduct, if punishment is given, it will be in the form of imposing sanctions and curtailing a student’s privileges which they enjoy in the school. We will always ensure that through such measures the students realize their mistake and correct their behaviour.

 

INTROSPECTION:

In case of minor breaching of the school’s disciplinary rules a student is sent to the introspection room where he/she is required to maintain silence, meditate and ponder upon his/her action with the purpose of correcting his/her behaviour and mistake.

COUNSELLING :

Any kind of emotional or behavioural problem or problems related to career guidance may be discussed at large in an informal and conducive atmosphere. The trained and qualified school faculty will counsel the children and help them overcome their problems.

CONFERENCE:

In case of repetitive misbehaviour and extreme breach of school’s code of conduct by a student, parents will be called to the school for a meeting, with the purpose of correcting the student’s behaviour, through parental action and support.

ABSENCE/LEAVE

• All children are expected to attend school on the opening day after every vacation/break. Those absent due to any sickness must bring/submit a medical certificate before they join the class.
• It is compulsory for the students to have minimum of 75% attendance in the academic year to make them eligible to appear for the final examination.
• In case leave is required for a day, the class teacher may be informed through the Almanac.
• For longer leave, an application needs to be sent to the class teacher and the Head of school should be informed telephonically. A leave application for long leave may also be sent by mail in case of sickness/ travelling. Such applications should be sent along with supporting documents.

• Leave for going out of station should be approved, prior to proceeding on leave. Duty leave will be sanctioned to only those students who represent the school while playing a tournament, or participate in any other events. Any student, not representing the school, will have no such claim.
