Attendance Requirements
Indian Matric Higher Secondary School (IMS) places great importance on regular attendance, as consistent participation in school activities is crucial for the academic and personal development of students. The following guidelines outline the school's attendance requirements and the implications for students who fail to meet these standards:
Attendance Criteria
- Minimum Attendance Requirement: Students must maintain a minimum of **85% attendance* of the total working days in the academic year. This requirement is applicable to all students, including those transferring from other schools.
- Transfer Cases: For students who transfer to IMS during the academic year, the attendance record from their previous school will be considered. The combined attendance from both schools must meet the 85% requirement.
Consequences of Insufficient Attendance
- Eligibility for Final Examinations: Students who do not meet the minimum attendance requirement of 85% will not be permitted to sit for the final examinations. This policy ensures that students have adequately participated in the learning process and are prepared for the assessments.
- Monitoring and Support: The school administration will regularly monitor student attendance. Parents will be notified if a student's attendance falls below the required level, and appropriate measures will be taken to address any issues. This may include counseling or interventions to improve attendance.
Special Considerations
- Excused Absences: In cases of medical emergencies or other valid reasons, parents are required to submit a written application along with relevant documents, such as medical certificates, to the school office. These absences will be considered on a case-by-case basis and may not count against the 85% requirement, subject to school policy.
- Parental Responsibility: Parents are encouraged to ensure that their children attend school regularly and to communicate with the school regarding any absences. Regular attendance is a key factor in academic success and overall development.
IMS is committed to fostering a disciplined and supportive learning environment. By adhering to these attendance requirements, students can maximize their educational experience and achieve their full potential. For any questions or concerns regarding attendance policies, please contact the school's administrative office.
