Standing Against Violence

Standing Against Violence

The Department of Education requires all schools to adhere to the Student Behaviour in Public Schools Policy and Procedures and The Minister of Education directives. The Minister of Education, Hon Dr Tony Buti, in his commitment to keep our schools safe places for learning, issued the statement of ‘Standing Together Against Violence’ which articulates the actions and expectations for Principals, staff and their communities to make schools safe places for teaching and learning. 

Two key actions from this statement are:
Action One - Principals to automatically suspend students who attack other students, start fights or instigate fights. 
Action Six – Principals to implement good standing requirements inclusive of loss of good standing due to behaviour and privileges being removed. 

Student and staff safety is paramount, and we will adhere to these actions. For further details on this statement, please visit our school website: www.souththornlieps.wa.edu.au
