Leave Applications
17. Parents must consider carefully the effect on learning and the
consequences of asking for leave during school time. The
process of applying for leave is for parents/guardians to write
to the Headmaster or Headmistress in advance of leave, notifying
dates and the reason for absence. Each application is considered
on merit. Leave during examinations does not automatically
entitle a student to re-sit an examination. Medical leave must be
supported by a doctor’s certificate and, if required, verified by
the College doctor. Leave applications submitted 2 days after
leave has been taken will not be accepted and recorded as
unapproved absence.
18. Leave in excess of three (3) days may only be granted by the
Principal on recommendation from the Headmaster or
Headmistress or Boarding Housemaster/Housemistress.
Extended Leave
19. The Principal may grant up to one year’s leave and hold a boy’s
place in the College subject to the payment of tuition holding
fees. On return to school a boy will sit re-admission tests in
English and Mathematics before being re-admitted to the
College. The readmission grade is set by the Principal.
Damage
19.
Damage of any kind must be reported immediately to the
Headmaster, Headmistress, College Bursar or Housemaster. In
the case of willful damage or negligence, boys will be expected
to contribute all or part of the cost of repair and are liable to
punishment.
