Sacred Heart

To The Parents

Guidelines

  • Good education is the joint effort of the School and Parents. So, education of your child can be completed only with your full co-operation. The parents should feel proud of their children and should have confidence in their performance. All the same, they should be aware of the weaknesses and problems of their children. Parents should be earnest to report to the Principal/office whenever they are called. The parents should have faith in the actions taken by the school authorities to facilitate the all-round development of their children.
  • Parents/Guardians are requested to co-operate with the school in ensuring a high standard of morality and discipline among the students.
  • Parents must read all the rules printed on the school prospectus, school diary and circular. Ignorance of the rules will not be taken as an excuse.
  • Enrolment in Sacred Heart implies the willingness from the part of the parents to comply with the requirements and regulations of the school.
  • The medium of instruction and expression is English. To promote speaking in English the students are awarded with marks/grades through internal assessment.
  • Pupils should attend the school regularly. They must reach the school at least ten minutes before the assembly.
  • All the students must have the text books and the stationery required for their respective classes.
  • Every student should bring the school diary daily. Any information or request conveyed to the parents/guardians through the diary by the Principal/Teachers should be complied with and acknowledged.
  • Parents are advised to allow the children to watch only educational and useful program on the TV. Habitual watching of movies and film songs may distract the children from their studies and focus.
  • The child should be encouraged to cultivate habitual cleanliness in all his/her work and person. Dress him/her neatly and properly. Do not allow him/her to bring expensive things to the school so as to make a display of such items or to show that he/she is more privileged than the rest. Help the child to understand that in the school he/she is just like any other student.
  • It does sometimes happen that children complain to their parents concerning school matters. Parents are requested to notify the Principal in matters of this kind and to reserve their judgments until proper investigation is made. A little carefulness along this line often prevents unhappy consequences.
  • If your child has habits or traits of character which need special watchfulness and observance, please report to the Principal so that proper care can be given to your ward.
  • Children are attracted even by trifle things which they would like to acquire for themselves. If he/she brings home anything from the school without the teachers' knowledge, send it back the next day itself and inform about it to the persons concerned. It will have its own reward in his/her later life.
  • While sending letters or making remittance of fee or inquiries please note the full name of the child, his/her class and the admission number.
  • Parents are requested to check the diary of their ward regularly and respond to the remarks if any, made by the teachers/Principal.
  • Parents and guardians who want to discuss the welfare and progress of their children may meet the Principal with prior permission or at the notified time. Parents shall meet the teachers on the days and occasions notified in the calendar. Parents are requested to make good use of this occasion for building up mutual understanding between the parents and teachers with regard to the all-round progress of their wards. It is not a fault-finding session, but legitimate complaints may be brought to the attention of the Principal/Class teachers without any delay. It will be highly appreciated.
  • When the school is in session, parents and guardians should not visit the classes or teachers without the permission of the Principal as it causes disturbance to their normal and legitimate work.
  • Parents and guardians are requested to notify the school of any change in their address and phone number.
  • To be absent from the school to attend social functions is not recommended as it retards the child's progress in school and minimizes his/her respect for regular hard work.
  • Parents are advised to ensure that their children prepare their lessons regularly at home and take keen interest in the activities of the school.
  • Criticism of the teacher in the presence of the students should be prudently avoided as this may adversely affect the child.
  • A progress report is sent to parents after each terminal examination. Parents are requested to sign the report card and return it within three days.
  • Any kind of damage done to the school property must be compensated at the expense of the offender along with the fine that may be imposed.
  • No student will be granted leave without prior written application of the parents/ guardians. In all the cases permission is at the discretion of the Principal. Those who absent themselves for 10 consecutive days without the prior permission are liable to have their names struck off the rolls. Re-admission may be granted only on payment of fresh admission fee.
  • No student shall be allowed to go out or to be taken out of the school campus without obtaining the 'out pass' from the Principal. The out pass shall not be issued unless the Principal is satisfied with the genuineness of the matter.
  • All money matters should be dealt with the office.
  • Parents should see that their child comes to the school after his/her daily needs. All the students must have their Tiffin brought with them for break. Lunch packets brought by others will not be allowed to reach the students on account of various reasons.
  • Cleanliness of person and dress is expected of every student. The school uniform must be clean, without any type of decorations. Students coming to the school with untidy dress, hair etc. will be refused admission to the class.
