Safe Positive Schools

ST. ANNE SCHOOL CODE OF CONDUCT

We, the students, staff and parents of St. Anne Inquiry School believe that every child has the right to strive and attain their full potential in a Catholic Christian environment.

In order to maintain a safe, caring and positive place to learn, we expect everyone to adhere to the following principles:

• EACH PERSON HAS THE RIGHT TO BE RESPECTED
• THE CLASSROOM IS A PLACE WHERE STAFF HAVE THE RIGHT TO TEACH AND STUDENTS HAVE THE RESPONSIBILITY TO LEARN
• RESPECT SCHOOL PROPERTY, THE PROPERTY OF OTHERS AND THEIR RIGHT TO PRIVACY

The staff of St. Anne Inquiry School is entrusted with the responsibility of teaching, caring for, correcting and protecting our students in ways that reflect and support Christ's teachings. 

Definition of Bullying

Bullying occurs when a student is the target over time of repeated negative actions by one or more others. Bullying means there is an imbalance of power so that the student being bothered has trouble defending him or herself. These negative actions are intentional and hurtful. St. Anne Inquiry School will not tolerate bullying behaviour. Guided by Gospel values, the behaviour will be dealt with in a serious and timely manner. We believe that all students have the right to a safe, caring and respectful school environment, free from bullying actions.
