Code of Conduct

  1. 1. DPS students are encouraged to prioritize their well-being and maintain good health.
  2. 2. We instill in them the values of politeness, courtesy, and the importance of building friendly relationships with their peers, both within and outside the school premises. Any form of bullying and the use of inappropriate language are strictly prohibited.
  3. 3. In the spirit of teamwork and cooperation, students are expected to willingly assist others and gracefully accept any tasks assigned to them.
  4. 4. Our students are guided to uphold the highest standards of conduct, refraining from any vulgarity or indecency in their words and actions. They understand that cruelty reflects poorly on character, while kindness is a hallmark of a true gentleman.
  5. 5. They are taught to exercise caution when approached by strangers, refraining from accepting unwarranted gifts or rides from unknown individuals. The ability to say 'NO' to any wrongdoing is encouraged and applauded.
  6. 6. Students are entrusted with the responsibility of caring for school property. They are expected to treat school furniture, walls, and all school belongings with respect and refrain from any actions that may cause damage.
  7. 7. Punctuality and regular attendance are highly regarded, and any lateness or missed classes will result in negative points for the student's house.
  8. 8. We take pride in our school uniform and encourage our students to do the same.
  9. 9. Our students are taught to hold their school in high esteem and take pride in singing the DPS Song and the National Anthem as a mark of respect and honor.

Certainly, here's a rephrased version of the content with improved language:

  1. 1. To be eligible for examinations and academic awards, all students are required to maintain a minimum attendance of 75% before each examination. Failure to meet this attendance requirement will affect their promotion and eligibility for academic honors.
  2. 2. Students who have been ill must provide a medical certificate and a leave application, signed by their parents, to their class teacher upon returning to school after an illness.
  3. 3. Parents are responsible for completing the leave column on page No. 48 of the school record for every day their child is absent, providing a reason for the absence.
  4. 4. Students who were absent the previous day are required to submit a letter from their parents or a note in the school almanac, explaining the reason for their absence before being admitted to class.
  5. 5. Permission for out-of-town leave should be obtained at least two days in advance. Failure to do so will result in a penalty of Rs. 50 per day.
  6. 6. In the event of an emergency, parents will be promptly informed, and they should report to the front desk. Access to classrooms directly is not permitted.
  7. 7. Regular attendance is essential for students' academic progress. Students returning to school after recovering from an infection or contagious disease must provide a doctor's fitness certificate permitting their return.
  8. 8. Specific diseases require a quarantine period before resuming school:
    • Chicken Pox: Until the scabs fall off completely
    • Cholera: Until the child has fully recovered
    • Measles: Two weeks after the rash disappears
    • Mumps: Until the swelling has subsided
    • Whooping Cough: Six weeks
    • Jaundice: Six weeks
  9. 9. Unexplained absence for more than six consecutive days, or repeated absence without leave, may result in the student's name being removed from the school rolls. Re-admission will be considered upon payment of a fresh admission fee.

Students who miss their First Term and Second Term assessments due to illness or unforeseen circumstances may still be eligible for school badges at the discretion of the Principal. However, they will not qualify for proficiency awards.
