Security

Security is a priority at the school, and the safety of students and personnel is regarded carefully at all times. All students are issued with identity cards that need to be brought to school every day, as access to the school campus is restricted.

Call-out system
Should a civil disturbance or any other emergency occur, K&Q's telephone call-out system will inform parents if the school is closed and there will also be details of arrangements on this website. Should an emergency situation occur during school hours, students will be kept on campus and supervised until parents can collect them.

School intercom system

The school has a sophisticated intercom system. Intercom is provided in every room allowing communication from the Head of School and Head of Security.

Strategic Plan

K&Q's Mission is to develop the whole person as a responsible learner striving for personal excellence within a culturally diverse school. To support the Mission, the Board adopted a set of strategic policies to guide the Board's decision-making as follows:

• The School will recruit and retain national and local staff members who passionately support, promote, and apply the mission of the school.
• The School will design, review and assess its educational programme so as to promote high achievement for all students as expressed in the School's mission.
• The School's social and physical environment will be supportive of the mission.
• Students will be accepted without discrimination on the basis of sex, religion, race or nationality.
• Resource allocation will optimise student learning and fulfillment of the School mission.

It is the Board's expectation that the Strategic Plan will help K&Q further build on its existing strengths; that it will provide the impetus for the School to continue its focus on achieving its mission, and that it will help the School to further grow its enrolment in line with the school's Marketing Plan, which is being prepared in parallel to the Strategic Plan.

To best support the School's Mission, the Strategic Plan is build around three pillars:

• Teaching and learning Recognizing that effective student teaching and learning is at the heart of all that we do as a school, the first pillar of the plan addresses our academic program and its implementation, student support services, the extra-curricular program, and the hiring, development and maintenance of a dynamic, effective teaching staff. The aim is that K&Q will be continue to be the premier international school in Bhilai, with outstanding teaching and learning occurring in all aspects of its program.
• Social Environment A positive social environment improves student contentment and therefore learning. Moreover, as "word travels" a good social environment is a critical factor in making K&Q known and attractive. Finally, strong interaction and cohesion among school families will also help K&Q become a dynamic centre of community life for its students and their families.
• Facilities The School is making major investments in its facilities this year to create a perfect abode for our students. As there is current room for expanding enrolment within existing facilities, the emphasis will be on selected upgrading as needed, and to ensure that the facilities remain supporting for learning, well maintained, inviting and safe.

Service Learning

Community Service is an integral part of student learning at K&Q. As global citizens students are more aware of issues which call for more participation in not only understanding but contributing in numerous ways. The aim of community service is for students to learn and address these issues whilst contributing to the betterment of the community as well as themselves.

Our goal this year is to make service learning more relevant and part of the classroom education. This will make service learning a more effective learning experience and have an overall impact on the cumulative experience on both those who are involved in serving and those who are served.
