Attendance Policy

At SRNM Polytechnic, students must maintain minimum attendance to be eligible for end-semester examinations. Detailed guidelines on attendance requirements and consequences of shortage are outlined below.

Attendance Requirements

  • Students must secure at least 75% overall attendance per semester to appear for exams.
  • In case of valid medical or sports-related absence, students with 65%–74% may be permitted, subject to submitting a certificate.
  • Attendance below 65% will disqualify students from the examination, requiring them to repeat the semester.

(Rule adapted from DOTE's amendment 3.3(a), applicable from April 2023 board exams.) :contentReference[oaicite:0]{index=0}

Attendance Codes in Result Sheet

  • SA: Indicates shortage of attendance—student is not permitted to write exams.
  • RA: Re-appear due to failure, not attendance issue.
  • W: Withdrawal from exam.

These codes are reflected in grade sheets and results as markers of exam eligibility. :contentReference[oaicite:1]{index=1}
