Any student who has been absent will not be admitted to the class
without a leave note from theparent/guardian addressed to the class teacher
stating the reason for absence.

In case of an illness and absence for three days or more, the student
will have to resume schoolwith a doctor's certificate. If a child has a
prolonged period of absence due to a medical contingency, parents need to
regularly update the school principal on the student's healthprogress.
Parents will need to provide a detailed medical report when their child
resumes schoolafter the recuperating period.

child's ill health or due to an emergency, the principal may allow the
child to leave before closing hours of the school.

unsanctioned absence for more than six consecutive days can lead to
termination from the school. The school reservesthe right for re-admission
and the same can be done only by following the admission procedure,which

the regular class is not possible.

the start of everyacademic session to help parents plan family outings and
vacations and honour their socialcommitments without disturbing their
child's attendance in school.
