Progress Report Cards shall be issued to students after examinations to acquaint the parents with progress and the personality development of their wards. These are to be signed by one of the parents irrespective of the marks obtained by the child and return to the Class Teacher within 2 days of its issue, failing which, a late fee Rs. 50.00 per day shall be charged. Any damage to or loss of progress Report Card shall be liable to a penalty of Rs. 50.00 for issuance of a New Report Card.
Parents shall not refuse to sign the Progress Report of their wards because of their poor performance in Tests or Examinations, since this will discourage and demoralise them further.

Promotions shall be decided on the basis of the final aggregate/percentage of marks obtained by pupils in all assessments and the percentage of their attendance.
