AISL Student Leaving Protocol

Notice Period

• A re-enrolment survey will be sent out at the end of February. Parents can notify the school that they are either i.) Leaving at the end of the school year; or ii.) Unsure of their plans at the time. The completed survey will serve as official notification that a student is leaving the school.
• If your child is leaving AISL at any other time during the year, parents need to inform the school in writing to: admissions@aislusaka.org as soon as possible so that we may process your child’s school leaving paperwork. Please provide the departure date, or approximate date if you are not 100% sure. Please be aware that we require 10 days notice to process the leaving paperwork.
• Three Months prior notice is required to receive a full refund of tuition fees. Please refer to the AISL Tuition Payment Policies regarding Tuition Fee refunds.

Request for Student Records /Recommendations
Please send all requests for student documentation (ie: recommendations, transcripts, reports) to the Admissions Department (admissions@aislusaka.org).  The Admissions Manager will coordinate requests and ensure that all requested documentation is completed and sent on time. Please do not send requests directly to teachers, counselors or principals; this can delay the process. 
**Note that three weeks notice is required for documentation requests to be completed.
Admission Testing & application Information for other schools

• The Admissions Department will administer admissions tests required by other schools. Please contact: admissions@aislusaka.org regarding any school-based tests that are required as part of a student’s application to other schools.
• The Admissions Manager will collate and send all supporting materials to other schools where the student has applied, and/or will coordinate and monitor submissions in cases where faculty are required to submit on-line.

Sign Out Form
During their last week of school, students will receive a sign out form to sign out with all their teachers, confirming that they have returned all their books and equipment and that all fees have been paid in full. If in primary, your child’s class teacher / teaching assistant may assist with this process. Secondary students are expected to sign out with their teachers independently.
Leaving Paperwork
Once the Admissions Department receives the completed sign out form in that last week, your child will receive a sealed envelope on the last day of school to be given to their future school.  This envelope will contain copies of reports, a transcript if in secondary, a school profile, MAP testing (if applicable) and a school leaving certificate.
Refund of Equipment Deposit
The refundable equipment deposit will be returned once the student has returned the completed sign out form.  Please inform the Accounts Department if you require a cheque or bank transfer along with the respective payee name and bank transfer information
