Safety and Security
CCTV Surveillance System
In today’s world, security is an increasing priority for schools. There are real and potential treats for students, teachers and material assets. CCTV has become increasingly popular for schools and education facilities. CCTV is now being used to reduce bullying by placing cameras at strategic locations. We have installed CCTV in each classroom, labs, offices and entire school Premises. When an incident occurs, a teacher can review the footage and identify the culprit or culprits. Some schools are using CCTV footage as an evidence to show the parents of misbehaved students that their child has a problem in the age of technology; this simple weapon is one of the most effective ways to deter and fight the evils. CCTV surveillance is of great importance in school. It helps in monitoring and keeping track of activities taking place in School premises.
Eco-Club
Our students are formed into various groups and clubs. From the primary classes we teach them to take care of the plants and the cleanliness of the school premises through these clubs. One such club is Eco Club who plants saplings every year and take care of them. This year too we had the tree plantation as all of us are aware of the alarming environmental issues by the humanity. At tender age we try our best to inculcate in our students the significance of plantation and to take care of environment.
