The safety and security of our students is the prime concern and responsibility of the school and the schools will take all steps to ensure the same. However, there are certain unforeseen incidents which are beyond the reasonable control of the school when students take part in any indoor and outdoor activities including all Sports, Riding, Tracking, Excursions, Camping, Cycling etc. or any other activity that is usually conducted by the school as a part of learning and if some untoward incident occurs for that the onus will not rest with the school alone.

The school authorities, staff, teachers will be free from any and all liabilities, claims, suit, demands, judgments, costs, interest and expense arising from such situations, including any accident or injury to the student and the costs of medical expenses.

The Parent-Teacher Association was set up many years ago on the guidelines provided by the Government. The General Body of the Forum is constituted of all the parents whose children are studying in the school. The Executive Committee of the Association is a nominated body represented by parents and teachers of the school. The Principal of the school is the ex-officio President of the Association. The PTA plays a pivotal role in making decisions from time to time regarding the welfare of the school. It facilitates closer association between parents and teachers in their effort to make the school an ideal place for the all-round education of children. It also offers parents a platform to express their views freely and frankly, thereby involving them in a process of mutual participation aimed at the welfare of the children studying in the school.

Parents are expected to go through the school calendar carefully and make a note of important dates and events, especially parent-teacher meetings, tests and examinations.
