Leave And Absence

  1. Parents / Guardians should avoid taking children on long holidays during working days. There is no procedure to grant permission for such absence or grant leave. The child will be treated as absent and the responsibility for such absence will be of the child/ parent/ guardian. (if prior information in writing is intimated, then the absence will be treated as informed absence, otherwise it will be treated as uninformed absences and liable for fine as per para 9 below) 
  2. Total number of working days are approximately 225 Students must obtain 80% / 75% attendance as applicable, failing which they may be debarred form taking the Examinations. Students remaining absent too long or too often before any examination may not be allowed to take that test. In general terms for every day of absence, starting six working days before the exam, the student may lose five minutes in any one exam per day of absence as decided by the School. 
  3. Unless there is an emergency; absence from school is discouraged. Absence on account of birthdays, marriages, feasts and similar reasons will not be acceptable. 
  4.  If a student is urgently needed at home an application duly signed by the parents / Guardians must be sent to the office. 
  5. The names of students absenting themselves for a period of two weeks without intimation will be automatically struck off. Such students may be re-admitted only by special permission of the Headmaster and by paying the admission and necessary tuition fees once again. 
  6. All absence to be treated as informed absence have to be applied through School Soft 13.1 Student profile as per procedure laid out on page" Regularity Record of Absence" . Informed absence can be so treated if the student informs before being absent from the school. However it may not be possible at all times in reality, therefore it is advised that students inform the school of their absence within 3 working days of the absence. Failing which the absence will be treated as uninformed absence and liable to fine.

    The tendency to apply for all absence at one time at the end of the month is detrimental to school discipline and not permitted. All absence not informed within 3 working days of the absence will be converted into uninformed absence and liable for fine. 

  7. Any child who remains absent from the school without prior information may be fined @Rs. 50 per day, calculated on continuous basis from the day of absence to the day of resuming school to include all closed days falling in between; irrespective of there being holidays or Saturday or Sunday, as per Para 9 below. 
  8. Students who leave prior to the school vacation or join school late after the vacation are liable to suspension / having their names struck off the school rolls. In case of sickness/ eventualities the matter must be notified through School Soft 13.1 with relevant documents on the same day or earlier. Before or after the vacation full day attendance is compulsory for all the staff members and students. Notification through SS 13.1 does not mean automatic approval of the school for regularisation of the said absence. Only after detailed scrutiny in the rarest case, it may be possible to regularise the absence. All guardians are advised to meet the HM at the earliest if such situation arises. 

    In the past it has been a practice to apply the rule leniently and only impose a fine for the absence from school on last/first day before/after the vacation. It has been decided that w.e.f Puja Vacation Sep 2017 the rule will be applied in letter and spirit. Only in exceptional cases a fine will be applied. The fine will be Rs 1000/- per day of absence. All cases the student has been absent due to circumstances beyond the control. Such absence will be considered by the school and on acceptance of the same by the school, the rule may be applied leniently on such cases only. Procedure for such cases remain as per the school diary 

  9. Uninformed Absent: HAVING APPLIED MEANS THAT THE STUDENT'S ABSENCE WILL BE TREATED AS INFORMED ABSENCE. THERE IS NO PROCEDURE FOR REGULARISING THE STUDENT'S ABSENCE OR TREATING THE ABSENCE AS LEAVE. INFORMED ABSENCE 

    FOR FIRST/ LAST DAY AFTER/ BEFORE VACATION AND FRO SCHOOL EVENTS LIKE ANNUAL PROGRAMMES/ ANNUAL SPORTS/ SATURDAY ACTIVITIES/ CLASS VISITS, HAS TO BE JUSTIFIED THROUGH DETAILED DOCUMENTATION. ABSENCE IS ONLY 

    ACCEPTED IN THE RAREST OF RARE CASE. Students absenting themselves uniformed and joining without valid acceptance reasons may be fined as per rules by the Headmaster. If the reasons for uninformed absence do not merit acceptance the absence be noted in the diary by the Class Teacher and the student be asked to report to the Headmaster / Deputy Headmistress with the form given below duly filled. On return the Class Teacher may please pursue the same for necessary action.

  14. Consequences for not applying for Informed Leave Absence 

    The school has specially designed a System for the Students for intimating the school of their absence which is known as “Informed Leave Absence”.A student is expected to maintain the desired percentage of attendance ranging between to in ranging between 75% to 80% in each academic session (depending on the class) failing which he/she is liable to be dealt with as per school rules given in the School Diary. 

    After having been absent if the system reflects “A” i.e., Absent even after 3 days of absence it shows that student has not applied for Informed Absence. 

    Some of Consequences of “A” being reflected in the system are given below :- 

    1. The student will be classified as disregarding the school rules / regulations repeatedly. 
    2.  The School authorities have the right to treat it as a case of gross indiscipline. 
    3.  Such irresponsible / undisciplined conduct coupled with a subsequent attempt at claiming the leave on medical grounds, as afterthought , shall not be entertained. Relevant rules as applicable may be applied on the student. 
    4.  Such slipshod approach of a child would reflect his lack of interest in academics. This is very serious issue and be noted accordingly by all.
  15. 15. In case of mistakenly having applied for Informed Absence on wrong dates you are required to inform school through contact us giving Application Number and dates “Informed Absence” applied for. The School will thereafter delete that entry and once you see it deleted then you required to apply once again for the correct date.

The attendance is calculated one day before the examination. This is inclusive of absence on account of illness and any other special circumstances."

     

    Quoted under Evaluation, Examinations & Promotions/Secondary Section Class 9.

     

    Extracts from the Regulation. Chapter I : Indian Certificate of Secondary Education Examination: The Council for The Indian School Certificate Examination : C. Minimum Attendance Requirement. (Applicable to Classes 9 & 10).

     

    "Candidates whose attendance is below 75% of the working days are ordinarily not eligible to sit for the examination. However, the Chief Executive and Secretary has the authority to condone the shortage in the case of candidates whose minimum attendance is not less than 60% of the working days, during each year of the two year course. Heads of schools are not to refer condonation of attendance in case of candidates having below 60% attendance. The last date for computing attendance in school is February 15, of the year of Examination."

    Quoted under Evaluation, Examinations & Promotions/Important Notes "Absent from Evaluation/ Examination. Absence of a student during examination for any reason whatsoever will be reflected as such ( AB) in the progress report. Non submission of project (Internal assessment) on time will also be treated as absence and marked as AB. AB in any one part i.e. Internal / External assessment will result in Total being marked as Absent (AB). This confirms to the guidelines /regulations for ICSE Examination."

     

    Quoted under Evaluation, Examinations & Promotions/Important Notes "Total number of working days are approximately 225. Students must obtain 80% / 75% attendance as applicable, failing which they may be debarred form taking the Evaluation/Examinations. Students remaining absent for too long or too often before any evaluation/examination may not be allowed to take that evaluation.

Before or after the vacation full day attendance is compulsory for all the students."

     

    Applying through School Soft is no authority to treat the absence as authorised, irrespective of reasons quoted.

     

    Quoted under Indemnity Bond, "The guarantor agrees that the attendance is a very important aspect of the discipline of the school. The guarantor assures the management that the student's attendance will be observed diligently and action be taken in case the student fails to fulfil the required attendance criteria.”
