School Admission System & Procedures

Admission Procedure

Admission is open to everyone irrespective of caste, creed and religion. However, the school reserves the right to admit or refuse admission to a candidate at its discretion as per its own criteria of admission.

Eligibility

For admission to class Nursery, a child should have completed the age of 3 years on 1st April of the year but should not have completed 4 years on the said date. Corresponding increase in age will apply for higher classes. For admission to class XI (if any) the eligibility criteria will be on the basis of merit.

Transport Facilities

The school has twenty two buses of its own and the rest are hired buses which run on the specified routes only. The buses hired on the yearly basis are reasonably comfortable and suitable to the requirements of even small children. The transport facility is permitted for the complete academic year.

Transport Rules

  1. The school makes transport arrangements for the children by hiring buses on an annual contract explicitly on request from parents.
  2. Students availing the transport arrangement are required to obtain a Route Pass/User Identity Card from the School Office on payment of stipulated bus fee.
  3. Unauthorised travelling in the hired buses is viewed as a serious offence and can lead to a fine of Rs.500/-
  4. Parents are expected to co-operate with the school by ensuring that their children travelling in the buses report at their embarking points well on time, carry their User Identity card with them all the time and behave in a disciplined way, in the interest of their own safety as well as that of the other users.
  5. Intentional vandalism such as breaking window-panes, tearing and cutting of seat covers, defacing the interior of the bus and any other related offence will result in heavy damage penalty and expulsion from the facility.
  6. Parents are requested to study the specified routes and opt for those which suit them the best. Please remember that it is not possible to cater to individual requirements at the cost of time and distance.
  7. In case there is a genuine grievance, it should be submitted in writing to the Teacher escorting the bus or to the Administrative Officer.
  8. The use of bus facility cannot be discontinued in the middle of a session. It may, however, be discontinued latest by 10th July, in case of transfer/change of address, after submitting an application to the Administrative Officer 15 days in advance.
