GDGISN is a school that is built on excellence. This is evident in everything that we do, we aim to provide a comfortable, safe & discipline living space for our wards. Each student has a bed, locker, desk and chair. There is a Resident House Master for the boys, and a Resident House Mistress for the girls. They are both under the strict supervision of the Senior Boarding House Mistress.

The goal of our boarding facility is to ensure the independent and responsible development of our pupils. We are committed to providing a safe, secure, suitable learning and living environment for our wards and aim to encourage students to be self-reliant and to inculcate the habit of studying without prompting.

School rules are intended to ensure the safety and welfare of pupils and the smooth functioning of the school community.

2-SUSPENSION:

The child may be asked to leave the school for a short period. This is not a holiday, and may disrupt the child’s academic work and is used for a very serious breach of school rules such as consistent bullying, fighting, insulting, stealing or unauthorised exits.

In extreme cases such as the possession of illegal drugs or sexual relationships, a child may be asked to leave the school altogether. There is no refund of school fees.
