Controversies

There have been many instances reported in the local and national media where the school officials were accused of physical and mental torture. The administration is known for taking a totalitarian stance towards dress code and blatantly sexist practices in a co-ed environment.[3][4][5][6] In March 2016, it was reported that a student committed suicide after the school took disciplinary action on the student forcing parents to meet with the officials before he was allowed to continue education.[7]
