Overview > Safety
The social, emotional and physical wellbeing of our community is of prime importance. In keeping with our philosophy, every attempt is made to maintain a harmonious environment in which children, educators and the entire team feel safe.
Our Safety Policy Document details compliance with the Prevention of Sexual Harassment in the workplace, Child Protection Policy (POCSO), Code of Conduct for staff and team members, and is managed and overseen by a Safety and Child Protection Committee. A detailed Code of Conduct is shared with each learner and their parents at the time of admission, and is also available on our Intranet.
Our school counsellors are present on campus to help our learners handle challenges that may arise, whether due to academic or personal pressures, bullying, or mental and emotional issues. We also have visiting teams of experts who address and present tailor-made age specific awareness sessions.
Our campus is secured by a fence, patrolling guards, and by security cameras. Classrooms are designed for safety with excellent visibility to their interiors through large glass windows. Our teachers and staff are safety aware. There is a professional nurse staffing our infirmary to attend to minor ailments and administer first-aid. Carefully thought-out procedures are in place and diligently executed to get children into and out of buses at school and at bus stops. All student buses have staff members travelling on them and there is regular tracking and maintenance of school vehicles. Our laboratories follow prescribed safety directives, including an open shower stall.
All visitors must make an entry in our visitor’s log, be given authorisation to enter our campus, and wear a visitor’s ID during the time they are at school.
We take our students off-campus for excursions, field trips, and inter-school tournaments frequently. We have established safety protocols to be followed during such events/trips, and students are always accompanied by our teachers and team members who are responsible for the wellbeing of the groups.
