Code of Conduct
How we expect everyone to behave
The standards we hold students, staff and parents to — written plainly, and applied consistently.
Respect for every person
Every student, teacher and staff member is treated with courtesy regardless of background, ability or belief. Ridicule, exclusion and slurs have no place here.
A safe campus
No bullying, physical or verbal, in person or online. Every report is taken seriously and followed up by the class teacher and the counsellor.
Honest work
Assignments, projects and examinations are the student’s own. Copying, plagiarism and unauthorised help are treated as academic misconduct.
Punctuality and attendance
Students arrive on time, attend every scheduled class, and bring a written explanation for any absence.
Uniform and presentation
The school uniform is worn correctly on all working days, with the prescribed shoes, ID card and grooming standards.
Care for the campus
Classrooms, laboratories, library books, buses and grounds are shared property. Damage caused deliberately is made good by the family.
Read the full Code of Conduct
The complete document covers discipline procedures, the anti-bullying policy, digital conduct, and the school’s expectations of parents.
