PUPIL'S CODE OF CONDUCT

School has profound faith in self-discipline as it believes that discipline is essential in all walks of life. It is an integral tool for the development of personality. The measures outlined are of ‘self-help’ variety and serve to inculcate an awareness in :

1.Dress / Appearance / Turnout:

(a) All pupils are expected to be neat and clean and wear the prescribed school uniform.

(b) Shoes need to be well polished.

(c) Girls are advised to dress their hair into two plaits using maroon ribbons as per dress.

(d) Fancy / Ornamental hairdos / clips are not allowed.

2. Behaviour / Deportment / Speech:

(a) Students must converse in English as far as possible.

(b) Courtesy and politeness will be the hallmark of the pupils, who must greet all staff members, visitors and elders, showing due respect at all times.

(c) Classroom discipline should be maintained.

(d) Pupils must avoid loud talk in and out of classes, and also chorus answers. Silence in corridors, in the library and laboratories is a must.

(e) Damage to school property will be penalised.
