TERMS, RULES & REGULATIONS

The String of Music and Dance Academy (SMDA) has laid down certain rules to make the learning process uniform and enjoyable for everyone.

The SMDA faculty may take the decision of not certifying students failing to observe discipline and violating the below rules and regulations.

Students are not expected to miss classes errantly. In case of unavoidable circumstances, if a student misses a session, he/she will be marked as absent for that class and no compensation will be provided for the same. A student attending classes in a batch will under no circumstances be allowed to attend classes from another batch to compensate the missed session or to cover up the session he/she is going to miss.

In case they suffer from any accidental injury in the absence of a teacher, they agree to release SMDA faculty and its teachers from any liability. Further, SMDA shall not be liable for any medical or any other expenses incurred by the student and/or his parent, guardian, relative or friend, for the injury or damage caused.
