The prefectorial system forms the backbone of life in this public school. The initiative and capabilities of individual students are continuously watched and those with inherent or cultivated leadership qualities are selected to the Prefects’ Council. The students’ affairs are managed by this Council, headed by the School Captain and the Head Girl. At the house level, the House Master /Mistress and tutors assisted by senior students who are selected as House Captains and Prefects, manage the activities of the Houses.
The Prefects’ Council is encouraged to manage their affairs independently, under the guidance of the staff members.
