Residential School Rules and Regulations (Session 2024-25) Suggestions for Parents

No student shall be permitted to the school on the day of re-opening and also during class hours. Permission should be sought in advance in case of any late reporting.
Parents should stitch the Boarding Number label on all the clothes in the ward.
Parents desirous to nominate local guardians, should submit to the school office an authorization letter nominating the local guardian (Not more than two members) with their specimen signature and photo affixed on the letter.
Parents willing to meet or take their ward home on Special Occasions should get written permission from the Principal in advance. Permission will not be granted over the telephone.
Parents/guardians are permitted to visit their ward on all second Saturdays. If any examination or school function or Inter House Activity falls around the second Saturday, the children will not be permitted to go home.
As the students take at least a month's time to get accustomed to the hostel situation/environment, no parent/guardian is permitted to visit the child on the second Saturday of the first and second month (i.e. admission month for new admission). Hence you are requested to bear with the initial disturbances and allow the management and our student counsellor to convince the children, to continue their stay and study in the school.
Persons authorized by parents (in writing) only will be allowed to meet or take the students during holidays. Students are not allowed to go home alone without their parent's written permission. No phone message will be accepted in this regard.
Parents/Guardians are permitted to visit only their ward and not his / her friends. Only limited visitors are allowed. Similarly, they are not permitted to visit their ward during school hours.
In case of emergency, permission should be sought from the Principal to meet the student during school hours.
The student can be allowed to make a phone call to parents after 15 days time (old students), and new students will be allowed to make phone calls after 30 days of joining the school and on Birthday Day (Both old & new) after 2:00 pm. The administrative office people shall see that the duration of a phone call does not exceed more than ten minutes. Mobile phones will not be allowed in school. If found in possession it will be dealt with seriously even if this may lead to expulsion.
Parents who have an e-mail facility either at home or office are requested to inform their e-mail address, so that it may be easy for us to contact them. An E-mail facility is also available in the school office. Parents intending to use the same may please make use of the following E-Mail id: careerdefenceschool@gmail.com (Ambala) patialacds@gmail.com (Patiala)
All communication with the school should be made only through the Principal. Parents cannot have direct contact with the teachers/wardens except through the Principal. They are also requested not to visit the teachers/wardens in their residence and not to contact them over the telephone.
Parents are earnestly requested to meet all the teachers/wardens during the Parents - Teachers' contact session. Parents will not be permitted to meet their ward on any other day and time.

Please ensure and abide by the discipline and decorum of the school. Especially during out-pass day, every parent is earnestly requested to meet their ward's teachers and do access the overall performance of their ward. It is very much discouraging to note that parents are only keen on taking the ward out and have no interest towards academic performance. Parents' attention is very much wanted in this context. During the parent-teachers session makes it a point and adjusts your busy schedule at least to be available for a day.
No permission can be given by phone because there is no guarantee that the caller is the ward's parent. If in case you want any permission, it should be intimated early and the same should be recommended in advance through Mail. Extending holidays along with out-pass days cannot be allowed. And if you fail to report on the said day; a heavy fine of Rs.1000/- will be collected along with the explanation letter.
Sending a vehicle to pick up the wards should be avoided and we will not let any student go on his/her own because of security reasons. If the situation demands, advance permission can be in person. Time is precious and one should not waste others' time.
During out pass days, parents are coming very late at night or before 2:00 pm. and troubled the administration, for a favour by making violations of the rule. Such parents are advised to abide by the rules and cooperate with school authorities.
As the children spend their prime growing years at school, it is obvious their uniforms become redundant after a year. Parents should ensure that a new set of uniforms should be ordered every year, as the clothes wear out fast since they are worn almost throughout the year.
The children availing leave to attend marriages/ family functions, visit temples etc will not be encouraged by the school. This affects the academics of the children and the regular schedule of the school. Kindly avoid it and help your kids to maintain regularity and punctuality. Marks will be allotted according to the number of working days.
Parents are requested to kindly understand that it would take even two months for the children to settle down fully
Parents are requested to be quite prompt in the submission of school fee installments and dues and not to create botheration to administration by sending reminders and all. The final result will only be dispatched after the clearance of complete dues.
