:: VALUES, RIGHTS, RESPONSIBILITIES AND RULES ::

 

At Rosny College we value

  • self discipline, self control and self respect

  • respect for others' rights, opinions and ideas

  • respect for others' talents, character and background

  • honesty, fairness, co-operation and dignity in the way we treat each other.

At Rosny

  • students have the right to learn

  • teachers have the right to teach

  • we all have the right to be respected, the right to be heard and the right to be safe at all times.

     

Our responsibility is to ensure that our behaviour allows those rights to be enjoyed. There are at least six ‘rule areas’ that this document addresses. Each emphasises the fundamental value of respect for ourselves and others.

 

Learning

 

The responsibility to show effort, to work through a process towards a goal and to help others will be encouraged. We demonstrate respect for others by not doing anything that hinders their right to learn.

  • It is expected that students will bring necessary equipment, books and completed homework to class as requested.

  • It is expected that students will be prepared for their classes and be on time.

 

Communication

 

Everyone has the right to have their say as long as they speak respectfully and take turns in appropriate ways. It is expected that students will minimise disruptive noise (i.e. noise inappropriate to the task), both in class and around the College site. We encourage positive language that builds one another up (this means that swearing, hostile put downs and aggressive behaviour will not be tolerated).

 

Care for the environment

  • The College must be kept clean and tidy.

  • Care must be shown for the College gardens and plants.

  • Care must be shown for furniture and property.

  • The College must not be damaged or defaced.

 

Movement

  • Everyone is expected to walk, not run, inside the buildings.

  • Great care must be taken by drivers of vehicles entering or leaving the College grounds.

 

Safety and privacy

  • Dangerous items such as real or imitation weapons, drugs or alcohol are not permitted at College.

  • Smoking is prohibited on College premises.

  • The College must be notified of any infectious disease or health conditions that could be harmful to self or others, or require special care or medication.  Confidentiality will be respected.

  • Photographs cannot be taken without the person’s permission.

 

Settling disputes

  • Problems should be solved without recourse to violence, threats or abuse.

  • Tolerance of others’ differences including gender, skills and abilities, physical differences, religion or cultural background is expected and encouraged.
