ACCOMMODATION

Allocation of accommodation

The on-campus accommodation available is as follows:

3 BHK

2 BHK

1BHK

Shared accommodation, no kitchen

Temporary guest rooms, no kitchen

Allocation of accommodation is according to the following criteria:

Role within the school

The size of the immediate family unit; accommodation is not allocated to allow extended family or parents to stay

When children have grown up and left TISB, it should be expected that a family will be asked to downsize and allow other colleagues to benefit from bigger accommodation and more space Accommodation should not be viewed as an entitlement and the school has the right to make decisions regarding the allocation of staff accommodation Because accommodation is a limited, on-campus staff should be sensitive to this Movement between accommodations will be kept a minimum but staff may be asked to move from time-to-time

We may require some staff to share accommodation as it should not be assumed single rooms will be allocated to everyone

The school will make appropriate decisions regarding the allocation or change of allocation of accommodation and will endeavour to give the member of staff as much notice as possible.

Support with moving in and off campus

The school can provide some manpower, only after school hours, for shifting/loading/unloading personal goods from the gardening staff The charge will be Rs 1000/individual/day

Furniture

When moving into school accommodation an inventory of furniture that the school can provide is issued
