• Evaluation System for the Junior School : The work of K. G. students will be continuously assessed by the teachers and grades given at the end of each term.
  
  Classes 1- 4 will have 3 class tests of 25 marks in each term and the best 2 will be taken into consideration. There will be a random evaluation of 12 class/home work by the teachers and the best 10 taken to assign marks on 50.
  
  Class 5 will have 2 tests of 40 marks in each term; 1 project work of 10 marks; and from the evaluation of class/home work the best 4 will be taken to arrive at marks on10.
  
  There will not be terminal examinations for the Junior School.
  Grades:
  A+ = 96 - 100 (Outstanding);
  A = 90 - 95 (Excellent);
  B+ = 85 - 89 (Very Good);
  B = 80-84 (Good);
  C = 65-79 (Fair);
  D = 50 - 64 (Satisfactory);
  E = 40 - 49 (Not Satisfactory);
  F = below 40 (Fail).
• Evaluation System for the High School:
  (per term; per subject)
  
  100 marks (80+20) from the Assessment & project work
  30 marks from the unit test
  20 marks from the class evaluation
  Internal Assessment for Moral Science will be based on “Conduct Record”.
  
  The final tabulation of 100 marks will comprise 30% from the 1^st Assessment; 30% from the unit test and class evaluation combined; and 40% from the 2^nd Assessment. A student must obtain 40% in this calculation

PRIVATE TUITION

1. As a policy the school forbids all private tuitions, as the pupil should be able to progress in his work as a result of good teaching.
2. Private tuitions are not to be taken by DBL teachers, since that will interfere with the proper execution of their school duties, including the preparation of lessons at home and the correction of exercises.

VACATIONS

1. The school has three major holidays and these are indicated in the school calendar.
2. These holidays may not be extended or anticipated. Unauthorized leaves on the last days before vacation and delays in returning to school, will invite a penalty as decided by the Principal.
