 REGLAMENTO ACADÉMICO

1. SOBRE LA CLASIFICACIÓN DEL PROGRAMA DE ACUERDO A LAS EDADES

La edad mínima para ingresar al programa de COPEI es a partir de los 6 años. Los programas se dividen de acuerdo a las siguientes edades:
Programa de Children.- desde los 6 a 9 años.
Programa de Pre-teens.- desde los 10 a 12 años.
Programa de Teens.- desde los 13 a 15 años.
Programa de Adultos.- a partir de los 16 años en adelante.
2. SOBRE LOS LIBROS
Una vez confirmada la aprobación del curso, los estudiantes deberán contar con textos originales a partir del primer día de clases. No se aceptarán
copias de este material debido a derechos de autor. La lista de libros según su nivel y programa estará disponible para ser descargada desde
Sistema Académico http://sistemas.copei.edu.ec/
3. SOBRE LA APROBACIÓN DEL CURSO
Para aprobar un curso, el estudiante deberá ENTREGAR 75% DE LOS DEBERES A TIEMPO y OBTENER UN PROMEDIO GENERAL DE 75%
EN LOS EXÁMENES, CON UN RESULTADO MÍNIMO DE 75% EN CADA SECCIÓN DEL PUNTAJE FINAL.
Antes de graduarse, los estudiantes serán evaluados a lo largo del programa (teens y adultos) con un examen internacional
estandarizado. Dicho examen es uno de los requisitos para aprobar el nivel siete.
Las notas académicas serán publicadas en nuestra página http://sistemas.copei.edu.ec/CopeiOnLine/ tres días antes del inicio de clases del
siguiente ciclo, los estudiantes las podrán visualizar siempre y cuando se encuentren al día en sus pagos. Por teléfono NO se da información
sobre el rendimiento académico.
Si aprueba el curso puede imprimir electrónicamente su certificado y solicitar el sello institucional (de necesitarlo) sin costo alguno. Si no lo
aprueba igualmente podrá imprimir electrónicamente el reporte de sus calificaciones. El estudiante podrá perder su certificado por faltas.
4. SOBRE FALTAS, RECUPERACIÓN DE CLASES Y SALIDAS PREMATURAS
Los estudiantes deben asistir al 75% DE LAS CLASES (3 atrasos o salidas prematuras se los considerará como una falta). La institución no
justifica faltas, sin embargo, los estudiantes pueden recuperar la clase perdida en la misma semana en otro horario. El estudiante que recupera
clase, debe permanecer la clase completa. Para el programa de Niños y Pre-adolescentes, el estudiante debe confirmar al recuperar la clase que
el quiz (la evaluación) de dicha clase coincida con la que perdió. El estudiante y/o padre de familia deberá tramitar la recuperación de clases
dentro de los horarios de atención al cliente establecidos (lunes a viernes de 08h30 á 17h00 y los sábados de 08h00 á 16h00). Debido a los
feriados en algunos ciclos el avance de las clases de los horarios de entre semana y fines de semana no son iguales por lo tanto sugerimos
verificar previamente los horarios de recuperación.
Sólo se puede recuperar la clase dos veces por ciclo sin autorización de Dirección. NO SE PUEDE RECUPERAR CLASE LOS DÍAS DE
EXÁMENES.
En relación a atrasos, se marcará atraso a aquellos estudiantes que lleguen después de haber transcurrido los diez primeros minutos de clases.
En el caso de que un estudiante sea menor de edad y desee hacer una salida prematura, ésta deberá ser solicitada por el representante quien
deberá mostrar la cédula de identidad en recepción para poder llenar el respectivo documento. Se considerará como salida prematura únicamente
cuando un estudiante se retire de la institución una hora y media antes de la hora de salida. Si el tiempo es mayor, será considerado como falta.
5. SOBRE DEBERES Y EXÁMENES ATRASADOS
El cumplimiento y el desarrollo de las tareas en casa es importante para la práctica del idioma fuera del salón de clase. Además sirven para
preparar al estudiante sistemáticamente para las evaluaciones. En ocasiones se ha observado a estudiantes copiando los deberes antes de
ingresar a clases, por esta razón está prohibido realizar los deberes dentro de las instalaciones de COPEI; por lo tanto a los estudiantes que se
encuentren en actitud de copia o copiando antes de iniciar clases se les retirarán los libros para devolvérselos a la primera hora de clase a su
profesor. En caso de ser menor de edad nos comunicaremos con el representante legal para darle a conocer sobre el asunto. Aquella tarea no
será considerada como válida.
En los programas de Teens (Adolescentes) y Adults (Adultos), no pueden faltar al examen Mid-Term (Mitad de Curso). Si falta, la nota del examen
final quedará como promedio. Si falta al examen final, deberá tomar un “examen de sustitución acumulativo” en los horarios establecidos por el
Dpto. de Notas.
En el programa de Children (Niños) y de Pre-Teens (Pre- adolescentes), las evaluaciones semanales son administradas en las semanas 3, 5, 7,
9 y 11 para cursos de once semanas y en las semanas 4, 7,10, 13 y 15 para cursos de quince semanas. Dichas evaluaciones no pueden ser
tomadas atrasadas, sino más bien debe recuperarse esa clase.
Cuando el estudiante falte tiene hasta una semana de plazo para entregar tareas atrasadas valorados con ½ punto. Los deberes serán revisados
por el maestro los primeros 20 minutos. En el caso de los cursos entre semana se hará el día UNO.
6. SOBRE REPETICIÓN DEL CURSO
El estudiante podrá tomar el mismo nivel máximo dos veces, la tercera matrícula en el mismo nivel es condicionada para aprobación de Sub-
Dirección Académica.
7. SOBRE CURSO REMEDIAL
En el caso de reprobar el curso, los estudiantes de los programas de Children (Niños) y de Pre-Teens (Pre-adolescentes) deberán repetir el nivel.
En relación a los estudiantes del programa de Teens (Adolescentes) y de Adults (Adultos) deberán tomar el curso de recuperación de CMM
durante un ciclo o en su defecto repetir el nivel. Después de haberlo aprobado, podrán pasar al nivel superior inmediato del curso que reprobó.
8. ALUMNOS CON CAPACIDADES ESPECIALES
Estudiantes con carnet de CONADIS serán aceptados de acuerdo al porcentaje de discapacidad y mediante aprobación de Dirección. No se
aceptará una discapacidad mayor al 40% a nivel intelectual, emocional, visual o auditivo. Podrá aceptarse un porcentaje mayor en discapacidad

Levine told Ryan Seacrest the song is about not
giving up on a relationship after its been derailed
