            h)  Homework
               Learning to follow up work done in class, and to pursue a line of study individually
                and without the immediate guidance of the teacher, is crucial to a student's
                academic development. Parents are requested to ensure that children do their
                homework (coursework, internal assessments or project work) regularly and they
                follow the timelines wherever specified. By homework the school refers to all
                forms of academic follow-up that takes place at home and not necessarily just
                written work.
               The purpose of homework is to encourage systematic study habits, develop time-
                management skills, and ensure that there are appropriate amounts and balance of
                homework  assignments  during  the  week.  Projects,  coursework  and  Internal
                Assessments given to students in Classes VIII - XII are assessed against the set
                criteria according to Board regulations and will contribute to the students' grades.

            i)  Communication Gadgets and Electronic Devices:
               Students  are  not  allowed  to  bring  to  school  any  electronic  gadgets  including
                accessories, which are used for gaming, music, communication etc. The exceptions
                are as under:
               1)   Students are permitted to bring their own laptops/Ipads/tablets from Class VI
                    onwards, subject to the condition they are used for learning in the classrooms
                    as directed by the teacher. These devices should not be used for any other
                    purposes such as communication, watching movies or playing games etc.
                    These devices should access the internet only through school provided Wi-Fi
                    and not through personal modems.

               2)   Students in the Primary School are provided with Ipads and Jiobooks which
                    enable them to effectively use technology as required in the classroom. These
                    devices should not be used for any other purposes such as watching movies
                    or playing games etc.
               3)   Use of mobile phones by students in the school is strictly prohibited.
                    Class XI - XII students are allowed to carry their mobile phones to school, but
                    must hand them over to the security at the gate at the time of entry to school
                    and collect them on their way out.
