Absence and Leave

1. Absence from the school without leave application is not tolerated except when the cause is sudden illness or unforeseen circumstances in which case the information must be given at the earliest.

2. After an absence from the school, the reasons for the absence must be entered briefly in the Regularity Record under "Absent" in the calendar. Reasons of a private nature may always be submitted in a letter.

3. 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 certificate.

4. Leave of absence for reasons such as birthdays, excursions, festivals, weddings, or time to study for an examination will not be considered sufficient.

5. A leave granted must be recorded in the Regularity Record under "Absent" in the calendar. This must be signed by the Principal/Teacher-in-charge.
