Students Discipline

The affairs of the school shall be so conducted as to promote self-discipline leading to decent and orderly behaviour to maintain a high moral in the institution and to build-up traditions that all good Public Schools cherish.

The observance of rules of discipline and good behaviour shall be a pre-condition to a student’s continuance in the school. In the event of serious breach of discipline by a student, if the Principal is convinced that the continuance of the student in the school is likely to be detrimental to the general tenor or discipline of the school, he/she may expel him/her or recommend his/her transfer to a special school where arrangements exist to correct delinquents or to reform the hardened offenders. This will be done with the approval of the Chairman.

The following procedure shall be adopted for striking off the name of a student from the rolls of the school, for non-payment of school dues :-

• If a defaulter fails to pay fees and fine within one month after the expiry of the due date, the Principal will send a written notice to the parent.
• If fees plus fine are not paid for two consecutive months, the name of the child will be struck off the school rolls.

To deal with disciplinary cases of students, Principal will constitute a disciplinary committee of three teachers (PGT, TGT & PRT – one each) for investigation and recommendation for suitable punishment to the defaulters. The Principal will consider the report and award the punishment to the defaulter student. Student/parent can appeal against the punishment awarded to the Chairman SAMC whose decision will be final and binding.

The following shall be the disciplinary measures which may be adopted by the school for students who have attained the age of fourteen years:-

• Fine.

• Expulsion.

Students expelled from the school will not be re-admitted. Cases for admission of students expelled from other schools will be referred to the SAMC.

Where a student is rusticated, he/she will not be admitted to the school till expiry of the period of rustication.

• Students up to Class VIII will not be expelled or rusticated.
