SCHOOL POLICIES
At Zee High School, we are committed to fostering a safe, disciplined and enriching learning environment. These policies ensure clarity and smooth functioning for students, parents, and the school community.
Transfer Certificate (TC) Policy
- Parents must apply for the Transfer Certificate (TC) within the specified time frame, on or before 28 Feb.
- Late TC applications beyond mention date will require payment of 60% Term-1 Tuition fee of the following academic year to collect the Certificate.
- Once a TC is issued, re-admission will require fresh enrollment as per the school’s admission process.
School Fee Structure & Revision Policy
- The school fee is subject to an annual revision of 10%, keeping in mind inflation and operational costs.
- If major infrastructural developments, such as new buildings, sports facilities, or academic advancements, are undertaken, the fee structure may be revised in consultation with the School Management Committee (SMC).
- All revised fee structures will be communicated in advance to parents.
Report Card Collection and Promotion Policy
To ensure smooth communication of student progress and a seamless transition to the next class, the school follows these guidelines:
- Report Card Collection – A hard copy of the report card will be given at the end of the year. Parents/guardians should collect it on the designated day.
- Promotion to the Next Class – Students will be promoted only after:
– Collecting their report card
– Clearing all tuition fees for the academic year
– Clearing transport fees, if applicable - Pending Dues – Students with pending report cards or outstanding fees may not be able to attend the next grade until these are cleared.
- Special Cases – In exceptional situations like illness or a family emergency, parents can request a later date for report card collection with prior approval from the school.
This ensures a smooth academic transition for all students.
Code of Conduct & Disciplinary Policy
- Open Communication: Parents are encouraged to use designated communication channels to share concerns and feedback.
- Respect & Discipline: Any actions or behavior by students or parents that disrupt the school environment or harm the school’s reputation will be subject to strict action.
- Behavioral Expectations: The school reserves the right to take appropriate action, including counseling, warnings, or suspension, in cases of persistent behavioral concerns that affect the school environment.

Safety & Accidents Policy

Parent-School Collaboration Policy

- Any concerns should be raised through proper channels rather than public forums or social media.
- Mutual respect and cooperation between parents and school staff is essential for a positive learning environment.
Transport & Bus Safety Policy
