The Sainik School Society, which falls under the purview of the Ministry of Defence,
exercises functional control, while a Local Board of Administration under the Chairmanship
of the Chief of Staff, Headquarters, 2 Corps oversees the efficient conduct of all
day-to-day affairs of the school. The school meets its financial responsibilities
from the scholarship money and Grants-in-Aid given by the Government of Haryana.
The important functionaries of the school are as follows : (a) Group Captain Suresh
Kumar (Indian Air Force), Principal (b) Commander L.K Jain (Indian Navy), Headmaster
(c) Major Ajit Kumar (Indian Army), Registrar (d) Smt. Harjeet Kochhar Senior Mistress.
To effectively implement the training programme and to achieve the aforesaid aims
and objectives, there is a set and well-oiled pattern of administration. The Principal,
the Headmaster and the Registrar are officers from the active service of the Armed
Forces on deputation to the Sainik Schools Society. The Senior Master who assists
the Headmaster in efficient discharge of his duties is usually the senior most member
of the academic staff. The students of classes VII to XII are administered through
the House system.
All students are allocated to one of four houses known as Chillianwala,
Kurukshetra, Panipat and Thaneshwar. Each House is looked after a by House Master
and Tutors. The Sub-Juniors, the fresh entrants of Class-VI, are kept in Holding
Houses named as Chhamb and Shakargarh. The prefectorial system is the touchstone
of any residential school. The students actively participate in the school administration.
The School Captain and Vice Captain are selected from the senior most class i.e.
class XII. Then there are the House Captains and the Prefects who look after their
respective houses not only inside the dormitories but also in the play fields and
elsewhere proper discipline is to be maintained. This system also brings to the
fore qualities of leadership in young students and they learn at very young age
to shoulder responsibilities and take command of situations.
