Student Code of Conduct
Please wait while flipbook is loading. For more related info, FAQs and issues please refer to DearFlip WordPress Flipbook Plugin Help documentation.
The aim of this Code of Conduct is to ensure that the Australian Islamic College is a safe space for each student. We are committed to building an environment where each student can explore their academic abilities while incorporating the tenets of Islam into their lives. It is expected that our students should, by their appearance and behavior, reflect these attributes.
Moreover, they are expected to develop pro-social behaviors, self-discipline, consideration for others and in doing so, build a reputation of the College as well as behave in an acceptable way within our broader community. While this document is primarily concerned with disciplinary procedures, it is recognized that student conduct is influenced by other aspects of the College program, such as the quality and appropriateness of curriculum, the opportunities provided for student leadership, the positive reinforcement given to students, and the availability of welfare services.
Here is a list of our objectives:
Create a nurturing environment wherein the rights and responsibilities of the individual are recognized and respected.
Recognize and reward students whose exemplary behavior promotes a nurturing environment.
Establish a set of rules and regulations that protects the rights of all individuals.
Make certain a clear set of consequences for individuals who do not accept their responsibilities and break rules.
Groom our students to become pragmatic in their religious understandings and practices.
