GETTING TO KNOW THE CODE OF CONDUCT (WHOLE SCHOOL
APPROACH)
As a pre-service (future) teacher, you need to have a thorough knowledge of the
school’s disciplinary codes from the very first day of teaching so that you are
aware of the rules and regulations that the school has put in place for its pupils
and staff. This will assist you with a variety of issues such as classroom
management (knowing what to do if a pupil breaks school rules in your class),
knowing what exactly is expected of you as a staff member etc.
On the first day at school, access the school’s disciplinary code and/or code of
conduct for both staff and pupils and study it. Answer the questions below in the
space provided.
1. Do the pupils have access to the learner disciplinary code and code of
conduct of the school? (1)
Learners are given the code of conduct when they join the school at the
beginning of the year. If they lose their copies, then they’re given more
copies.
Why is it important that pupils have this code and study it closely? (2)
They will be aware of how they can act and what they can and cannot do in class
and at school. Learners will behave better and not just do as they please when
they get to school.
1. Do staff have access to the staff disciplinary code and code of conduct?
(1)
Yes. The codes of conduct are supposed to be in their files.
Why is it important that staff have this code and study it closely? (2)
