TEXTBOOKS
At the beginning of each year, boys
are issued with subject textbooks
It
is the responsibility of the individual boy to ensure
that the text borrowed at the beginning of the year
is the same one returned at the end of the year.
In
order to facilitate this, boys are to write
the copy number of the textbook they borrow in the
table in their School Record Book and write their
name on the inside cover of texts to avoid texts
being misappropriated.
Obligations
of boys in regards to the use of textbooks at TSS
The School provides boys with set textbooks.
These texts are ordered by heads of department and
are stored and distributed through the Library.
The cost of these items is incorporated in the school
fees.
Boys
should be aware that when borrowing these items
they are to ensure:
- That
all items are returned to the library by the due
date and in the condition that they are originally
lent. Failure to do so will incur the replacement
cost of the item being added to the boy’s
school account
- Boys
should check all books when first borrowed and
immediately return any that are damaged
- That
the item returned is the same one borrowed. All
textbooks have an individual number that is located
on the spine of each book.
- That
the number of the textbook is written in the table
provided in the student record book
- That
the boy’s name is written inside the front
cover of each textbook borrowed
- That
boys check the overdue book list sent weekly to
pastoral care teachers for any overdue items.
- That
under no circumstances are boys to ask other boys
to return textbooks on their behalf
Failure
to do any of the above could mean that any non-returned
item will be assumed lost and charged accordingly.
When a ‘lost’ item is returned, a credit
is issued to the boy's school account.
