 * School takes the issue of attendance very seriously. Absence without granted official leave or medical leave is subjected to unwanted consequences stated in the policies and procedures by MOE. (//Teacher trainees, please check the procedures of applying and taking leave from NIE)//


 * To take medical leave on a regular working day, all calls to report absence MUST reach supervisor or school before 7 a.m.

Orginal medical certificate must be submitted, with supervisor's signature, to the general office upon returning to the school.

// (Teacher trainees need to call me __and__ school before 7 a.m on the day of absence. // // Originals should be shown to school and a photocopy of which must be submitted without delay and without demand upon returning to the school) //


 * Weekly Lesson Plan is expected to be submitted to supervisor on every Monday before 9 a.m.
