The "Attendance Rule" refers to the guidelines students must follow regarding their presence in
class.
It includes rules about when students should attend, how to report absences, and any
consequences for missing school
without a valid reason.
Daily Attendance Requirements
Students need to attend school regularly and
have at least 75% attendance each term to be allowed to take exams
and move to the next grade. Attendance is recorded at the start of each
school day and every subject class.
If a student is absent without permission, they will be marked absent
for the whole day.
Punctuality
Students must be at school before the morning
assembly starts. If they are late, they can only
enter with a valid reason or permission from the school. If a student is
late more than three times in a month,
they will get a warning, and their parents may need to meet with the
school to discuss the issue.
Absence Policy
For planned absences like family events or
doctor visits, parents must inform the school in writing at least two
days ahead.
In case of emergencies like illness, parents should notify the school by
phone or email within 24 hours.
If a student is absent for more than three days due to illness, they
must provide a doctor's note when returning.
Leave During School Hours
Students can't leave school during school
hours without permission from the principal or class teacher.
A parent or guardian must sign the leave register before taking the
student out.
In emergencies, parents can inform the school by phone or email, but
they still need to
provide a written confirmation later.
Disciplinary Actions for Poor Attendance
Students who don't meet the attendance
requirements without a valid reason may face consequences
like being unable to join extracurricular activities, missing out on
awards and certificates,
or in severe cases, being suspended or having to repeat the school year.
Attendance and Examinations
Students need at least 75% attendance in each
subject to be allowed to take midterm or final exams.
If a student misses school for valid reasons like a medical emergency,
it may be considered if they provide proper documents.
Missing an exam will only be excused for genuine reasons, and the school
must be informed right away.
