Attendance on working days in Delhi

Schools in Delhi sit under DoE Delhi for many recognised campuses and under CBSE for a large private share, with NCR families crossing from Gurgaon and Noida every morning. The April academic year is the default, and winter fog days belong on the holiday master if attendance is going to stay honest.

Front offices handle transfer certificates, EWS seats where they apply, and parent portals that families compare with the last school in NCR. A second spreadsheet for “NCR bus students” is how Delhi operations quietly fracture. Local named facts include CBSE, DoE Delhi, NCR, April academic year. Instrument: holiday master as the only weekday map. INR tuition plus transport across NCR; concessions and EWS accounting need named heads. April academic year with winter closures and fog days that must be working-day exceptions, not teacher improvisation.

Homeroom and period marks still read that map. Late joiners must not be absent before they enrolled. Statutory attendance codes (where they exist) are local. Do not import Ofsted codes onto a CBSE campus by default. Named owners still have to keep the holiday master, the roster, and the family view aligned in this place, because a brochure paragraph will not survive the first mid-year joiner or the first board week.
