            e)   Examinations

               Examinations determine strengths and areas of development of the instructional
               programmes and provide data that can be used to monitor students' progress, and
               to predict student performance on applicable board exams. The school holds two
               sets of examinations in an academic year for Classes 8 to 11. Class 12 as an
               exception to this appears only for their mock exams, over and above the regular
               tests.

               These occur at the end of each term of instruction. For Classes 10 and 12, prelims /
               mocks and board examinations are held instead of second term examination. Term
               examinations test content, concept and skills taught throughout the term / year
               and will align with applicable board examinations (ICSE/IGCSE/IBDP).

               Any form of malpractice in connection with any assignments / tests / exams will be
               dealt with strictly. This will include awarding of zero marks for the assignment / test
               / exam, possible suspension and may also lead to expulsion from the school.

               Students absent from internal school examinations will not be re-examined except
               in the case of a verified medical condition, students’ participation in academic,
               sports and co-curricular events with prior permission, or any other extenuating
