Attendance Guideline

UK school guidelines recommends that each student should meet a minimum attendance criteria, which is 85%. In TTK,  the attendance criteria is minimum 75%. Over the past few years, one of our observations on the exam result has been that the students who are regular to school usually achieve the best results.

Our sincere request to all parents: Drop the children to Tamil school every week. This would not only improve the attendance but also help the students to prepare for the exams well.

Please be aware that all our teachers are volunteers; they are very committed and they are putting their best effort to teach our children and help the community while we are away from home. Please commit one hour / week for the best interest of our children and make the teachers and CTK proud for the work they do!!!
