GENERAL RULES

Students are answerable to the school authorities for their conduct in and outside the school. Hence misbehavior in public places and conveyances justifies dismissal.

  • St. Paul's school is an English medium school where every effort is made to teach the students to handle English effectively, as a written and spoken language. Bengali or Hindi however are compulsory subjects as vernacular languages from class one. To acquire a great facility in the study of English, only English should be spoken in the school premises. Serious steps will be taken against those found speaking vernacular in school campuses at any time.
  • School begins with the morning assembly and students must be on time for it. It is advisable that students reach school at least ten minutes before the scheduled time for the assembly.
  • Late arrival to school is a breach of discipline. Those who come late must report the reason for their being late to the principal before they go to their classes and submit a fine of Rs.5. Five late arrivals will result in parents being called attention after which that student is liable to a fine of Rs. 10/- for every late arrival.
  • The purpose of regular attendance is to inculcate in the students traits of punctuality, regularity and academic discipline. To be eligible for promotion, a student must have a minimum of 90% attendance. Absence from the school without leave is not tolerated except when the cause is sudden illness or unforeseen circumstances in which case the information must be given at the earliest.
  • After an absence from school the reasons for the absence must be entered brief in the Regularity Record under 'Absent' in the diary.
  • If an unauthorized absence from school exceeds 15 calendar days the student's name may be struck off the rolls, and he/she may not be readmitted to school.
  • Leave for religious ceremonies, weddings of close relatives or special occasions must be obtained beforehand.
  • In case a student falls sick/meets with an accident in the school premises he can be helped with immediate first aid only. The parents will be informed and expected to come and attend immediately. It is important to give the correct contact numbers in the diary and update it whenever there is a change.
  • An absence due to illness for two or more days, besides being entered in the Regularity Record under "Absent" must be accompanied by a doctor's prescription.
  • Early Departure is availed when there is an emergency at home or when a student gets sick in the school. It is not granted to those who come sick from home.
  • Every student must attend the school on the first day when the school reopens after the long holidays (summer, Puja, Christmas). In failure to this the student is liable to a fine of Rs. 100/- for every single day. Those who are absent because of sickness must inform the school before or on the re-opening day. Failing which they must pay the above penalty .Absence without leave more than five days immediately after a vacation renders the students liable to dismissal.
  • House System: The school is divided into four houses, each having its own colour, captain and is guided by the appointed animator. The house system directs all the curricular and co-curricular activities.
  • Promotion at the end of the year will be based on attendance, continuous assessment in every subject, work done during the year and the overall conduct record.
