1. Parents and guardians should enforce regularity and discipline,

in their. children.

neatness, sincerity, obedience, gratitude and simplicity.

1. In order to secure all that is best in the education of our children,

the maximum co-operation between Parents/Guardians is

expected to co-operate with the School authorities by enforcing

regularity and discipline, by seeing that they prepare their

lesson daily and by taking an active and helpful interest in the

activities of the School,

2. Parents/Guardians are informed that occasional reports about

conduct and application from the teachers are conveniently sent

through the calendar. We earnestly recommend that parents or

guardians should look into their children’s School calendar

every day and see to it that the lessons and homework assigned

for the next day are done. They should also keep an eye on the

Leave and Absence Record.

3. Parents are particularly expected to sign Messages, Periodicals

Reports, Weekly Reports, or any other similar documents when

so requested. Failure to do this may put their children to great

inconvenience and render them liable to being sent home.

Repeated late coming, on forgetting to bring books, may be

punished in the same way.

4. If a pupil is likely to be absent due to illness for more than a week,

the Principal must be informed at once.

5. Private tuitions are strongly discouraged. Private tutors may be

engaged except after consulting the Principal and with his

consent. No tuition may be taken from the teacher who teaches

the pupil’s own class. All tuitions shall end one month before the

Final Examinations.

6. Parents, guardians or other persons are NOT allowed to see the

students or interview their teachers during School hours without

the permission of the Principal. As the staff should be seen

preferably in the “off” period, an appointment with the members

concerned should be arranged before hand. Permission should

be obtained from the Principal.

7. There will be “Open House” following the unit test and terminal

examination, where Parents, Guardians are free to meet the

class teacher, and subject teachers concerning the

performance of their child. Criticism of your children’s teachers

or School in their presence should be studiously avoided,

because it causes them to loose respect for their teachers with a

consequent failure to learn from the teacher. Should you have a

legitimate complaint, please see the Principal as early as

possible.

8. As your child advances in age, guide them to become

resourceful and useful members of both home and country.

Encourage self help in work and study. They should be taught to

keep the house tidy, polish their own shoes etc. The formation of

such habits early in life – inculcates in them the idea of the dignity

of work, a fundamental personal virtue for a successful career in

life.

9. Withdrawal of your children from class for mere social functions

is not recommended, because it retards their progress in School

and minimizes their respect for regular hard work, with

consequent failure to progress in studies.

10. As the medium of instruction is English, children should be

helped to follow their classes easily and intelligently by getting

them to speak in English with their classmates and companions

and at home.
