Student Behaviour Policy
The purpose of this Policy is to ensure the safety of students and staff and to
provide guidance on the immediate actions to take under certain incidents
affecting students. The policy is based on the principle of 8acceptable behaviour', with rules to ensure safety and a spirit of co-operation within a large community.
Students should show respect for other students and staff and act in a polite
and mature way. It is important for individuals to be able to learn, to be able to
teach and to be part of the College community without fear of:
•
disruption of, and interference with, learning
•
actual or threatened violence from others
•
bullying
•
harassment, including sexual or racial harassment, or harassment on
the grounds of religion, belief, or disability
•
illegal substances or alcohol being made available
•
criminal behaviour (e.g. theft or the carrying of offensive weapons)
•
deliberate damage to property
Students are expected to observe all rules and regulations of the College and to
accept that the College will institute disciplinary procedures if they are in
breach of any rules and/or regulations.
Students are made aware of this policy, the student disciplinary policy and the
anti-bullying policy through the learners9 handbook.
Students are asked to sign a 8Learner Agreement/enrolment form9 on entering
the College, which will commit them to abide by these policies throughout their
time in College.
