The school manual is a continuously evolving and developing compilation of
school rules and procedures. for access to the most recent version.
Attendance
Attendance
to school is obligatory unless students are sick. All students must attend
to school from the first to the last day of each bimester.
In case of
illness, every absence from school must be justified in the Diary by the
parents. When a student is absent for 4 or more days, or when
he/she can not attend activities on their return to school (Physical
Education for example) a Medical Certificate will also be required.
In some
cases the school will authorize absences; parents must request permission
from the Headmaster in anticipation. Only the Headmaster can authorize
the absence of the students.
The school
will always authorize the absence of students that:
§
Need to be
with their family in case of death or serious illness.
§
Require
urgent medical treatment.
Normally
the school will also authorize the absence of students that:
-
Have been
selected to represent Peru in a sport’s competition.
-
Have to
assist to an important family event, such as the graduation of a family
member.
-
Exceptional circumstances.
The school
will authorize limited absence for students that:
-
Represent
their sports club in preparation for possible selection for the mentioned
team. Students will be given a maximum of 5 school days per year for
these occasions.
-
Permission to represent clubs will not be given during exam periods or if
the student has poor academic, conduct and/or effort grades.
Parents can
choose not to sending their children to school even if they don’t have the
authorization. However, it is very important that they know the consequences
of a non-authorized absence:
-
They
cannot ask teachers for the work the students did during the absence
period.
-
They
cannot ask teachers to update the students when he/she returns.
-
Students
that don’t assist to school without authorization will have “0” in
the exams or works programmed for that period.
-
A student
can be excluded from school for repeated non-authorized absences.
Punctuality
Students
must arrive to school on time every morning, as well as to lessons and all
school activities. They must strictly adhere to the school timetable.
Students
arriving late to school will have their names noted in a book kept at the
main gate. The academic secretary will keep a record of those names.
Students
arriving late to school due to medical treatment or tests must present a
written justification.
Students
who arrive late for a second time in a bimester will be admonished and will
take a letter home, which must be signed by their parents.
Students
who arrive late for the third time in a bimester will be sent home. If it
is not possible to send them home that same day, they will receive a letter
informing their parents that they should not attend school the next day. If
they have an exam that day, they will receive “0”.
In the case
of students of years 4 and 5, a third lateness in the same bimester will
mean the loss of one point from the graduation points.
Students
who arrive late to a lesson or another school activity for the first time
will be admonished. The second lateness will result in a lower effort grade
for that subject in the bimester or, in the case of other school activities,
may be penalized with a demerit.
