Anti-bullying Stands
As a school, we take bullying and its impact seriously. Bullying of any form is not tolerated in our school, whether carried out by a child or an adult. Bullying is unacceptable in any form and the offender would face a strict punitive measure. We are committed to making all the pupils feel safe and secure while attending school. This will be achieved with the help of parents, pupils, teachers and the management.
Discipline
The HAPPY DAYS SCHOOL discipline policy is concerned about the behavior and safety of your child and others. We believe that love, firmness and consideration of each child are outstanding elements of effective discipline. We want all pupils to value and consider the needs of others at all times. We believe in the need for working closely with parents to ensure good behavior for all children. While we make them experience the consequences for misbehaviour, we also reward them for good behavior, polite manners and attitude to work.
