Promotion at the end of the academic year will be determined based on several factors, including attendance, unit tests, two terminal assessments, work completed throughout the year, and the student's overall conduct record.
Students found using unfair means during tests or exams will receive a zero in the affected subject. A remark to this effect will be recorded in the school diary, and the student will not be promoted to the next class.
The result of the Final Assessment is final and cannot be altered. In matters related to promotion or failure, the decision of the Principal is conclusive and binding.
As a general policy, the school discourages private tuitions, as students should be able to progress in their studies through the quality teaching provided at the school.
Vacations are listed in the School Calendar and may not be extended or anticipated. Unauthorized delays in returning to school after a holiday will result in penalties.
In adherence to the required number of working days as prescribed by the Governing Council, any unscheduled holidays will be compensated by holding classes on Saturdays as necessary.
A one-month notice or one month’s fee in lieu of notice is required before withdrawing a student from the school.
No certificate will be issued until all dues to the school have been cleared. Certificates will only be granted upon receipt of a written application from the Parent/Guardian to the Principal.
Any student failing in the same class for two consecutive years or failing twice within three consecutive years will be struck off the rolls, and a School Leaving Certificate (T.C.) will be issued.
Students with irregular attendance, failure to pay fees, habitual lateness or absence, laziness, disobedience, conduct that negatively affects the moral tone of the school, or illnesses that may endanger others, may be dismissed.
As a general rule, students dismissed from the school will not be readmitted. The decision of the Rector/Principal regarding all matters related to dismissal or withdrawal is final and binding.
Enrolment in Don Bosco School implies the student and their parents' agreement to comply with all the rules, regulations, and requirements set forth by the school.
