By accessing or using any of our digital platforms, you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree with these Terms, please do not use our website or digital services.

If you are using any service on behalf of a student, you confirm that you are legally authorized to do so as a parent, guardian, or otherwise permitted representative.
2. Scope of These Terms
These Terms apply to:
- the School website,
- online admission or enquiry forms,
- parent and student portals,
- school-managed communication tools,
- digital learning or engagement platforms hosted by or linked through the School,
- online fee payment interfaces,

These Terms do not replace separate school policies, admission forms, transport rules, discipline policies, academic rules, or any signed undertaking issued by the School. Where a specific policy or written agreement exists, that document may apply in addition to these Terms.
3. Use of the Website and Digital Platforms
You agree to use the School’s website and digital systems only for lawful and legitimate purposes connected with school interaction, information access, communication, admissions, fee payments, academic engagement, or school administration.
You must not:
- misuse the website or attempt unauthorized access,
- upload, transmit, or share harmful code, malware, or disruptive material,
- impersonate another person,
- provide false information,
- interfere with the security or operation of the platform,
- copy, reproduce, scrape, or commercially exploit school content without authorization,
- use the platform in a way that harms the School, its students, parents, staff, systems, or reputation.
4. Admissions and Enquiries
Submission of an enquiry form, registration form, or admission application through the School’s website does not guarantee admission. Admission decisions remain subject to the School’s eligibility criteria, document verification, interaction processes, seat availability, internal policies, and applicable educational requirements.
The School reserves the right to:
- request additional documents or clarifications,
- accept or reject applications in accordance with its policies,
- modify admission processes, timelines, or requirements,
- cancel or withhold admission in case of incomplete, inaccurate, misleading, or fraudulent information.
5. Parent and Student Responsibilities
Parents, guardians, and students using the School’s digital systems are responsible for:
- providing correct and updated information,
- maintaining confidentiality of login credentials,
- using school communication channels respectfully,
- checking official notices, alerts, and updates regularly,
- ensuring timely response where school action is required,
- not sharing access credentials with unauthorized persons,
- reporting suspected unauthorized access or misuse immediately.
The School shall not be responsible for issues arising from incorrect details submitted by users, shared passwords, or unauthorized access caused by user negligence.
6. Fees, Payments, and Financial Transactions
Where the School provides online payment facilities, such payments may be processed through third-party payment gateways or banking partners. The School may use such systems to facilitate payment of tuition fees, transport fees, activity fees, event charges, application fees, or other approved dues.
By making a payment, you acknowledge that:
- you are authorized to use the selected payment method,
- payment details submitted by you are accurate,
- payment obligations remain subject to the School’s official fee structure and rules,
- any applicable convenience charges, gateway charges, or taxes may apply as disclosed at the time of payment.
The School is not responsible for temporary payment failures, banking downtime, third-party gateway issues, or delays caused by external payment service providers, though reasonable support may be provided for reconciliation where necessary.
7. Refunds and Fee Adjustments
Refunds, if any, shall be governed by the School’s official refund, withdrawal, cancellation, or admission policy, and not merely by the use of an online payment facility. Submission of an online payment request does not create an independent right to refund unless such right is provided under the School’s applicable rules.
The School reserves the right to verify payment claims, adjust excess or short payments, and reconcile disputed transactions through its administrative process.
8. Academic and Administrative Information
The School may publish notices, circulars, schedules, calendars, announcements, examination-related information, event details, and other academic or administrative content through its website or digital platforms. While the School aims to keep such information accurate and updated, some content may be revised, withdrawn, corrected, or superseded without prior notice.
Users are advised to rely on the latest official communication issued by the School and contact the School office where confirmation is required.
9. Digital Communication
The School may communicate through website notices, SMS, email, app notifications, phone calls, printed circulars, parent portals, or other approved communication channels. Parents and guardians are responsible for ensuring that their registered contact details remain current and accessible.
The School shall not be liable for missed communication resulting from:
- outdated contact details,
- full inboxes,
- blocked SMS/email services,
- technical failures outside the School’s control,
- unauthorized changes made by users or third parties.
10. Student Conduct on School-Managed Digital Platforms

Students must not:
- bully, harass, or intimidate others,
- post inappropriate, offensive, or unlawful content,
- record or distribute class material without permission,
- disrupt online classes or school-managed digital activities,
- misuse chat, file-sharing, or communication tools,
- violate academic honesty expectations.
The School reserves the right to suspend, restrict, or revoke digital access in case of misuse, misconduct, or policy violations.
11. Intellectual Property
All content available on the School’s website or digital platforms, including but not limited to text, logos, branding, designs, photographs, videos, graphics, downloadable materials, documents, academic content, and software-related elements, is owned by or licensed to the School unless otherwise stated.
You may not reproduce, republish, distribute, modify, display, sell, or commercially exploit such content without prior written permission from the School.
Limited personal, non-commercial use for school-related information and communication is permitted, provided the content is not altered, misrepresented, or used in a misleading context.

13. Availability of Services
The School does not guarantee uninterrupted or error-free operation of its website, app, portals, or digital systems. Access may be suspended, restricted, or interrupted due to maintenance, upgrades, technical issues, security reasons, third-party outages, force majeure events, or administrative decisions.

15. Limitation of Liability
To the extent permitted by law, the School shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, consequential, or special loss arising from:
- use of or inability to use the website or digital systems,
- technical failures, interruptions, or delays,
- third-party payment gateway or service provider issues,
- unauthorized access caused by compromised user credentials,
- reliance on outdated, incomplete, or incorrectly interpreted website information,
- external cyber incidents beyond reasonable control.
Nothing in these Terms is intended to exclude liability where such exclusion is not permitted under applicable law.
16. Suspension or Restriction of Access
The School may suspend, restrict, or terminate access to any user or account, with or without prior notice, where it reasonably believes that:
- these Terms have been violated,
- the platform is being misused,

19. Changes to These Terms
The School may revise or update these Terms from time to time to reflect legal, operational, technological, or institutional changes.
