Parent Code of Conduct. 8.1 The Code of Conduct for parents and any visitors to the School is that of mutual respect for school staff and children. Parents should therefore adhere to the TES Community Values which include: ▪ Demonstrate respectful behaviour to all members of the School community. ▪ Manage their own child’s behaviour, especially where it could lead to conflict. ▪ Approach school staff through the correct communication channels to help resolve issues. ▪ Avoid using staff as threats to admonish children. 8.2 The School promotes a Civility Code in order to support a harmonious, safe and secure school environment. The School does not tolerate: ▪ Disruptive behaviour which interferes, or threatens to interfere, with the school operations both on and off campus. ▪ Loud or offensive language, swearing, cursing, or displays of temper. ▪ Bullying or threatening actual bodily harm to any member of the school community. ▪ Sending abusive or threatening messages in any form to the School or its community. ▪ Inappropriate use of cameras/mobiles for recording purposes. No recording device may be used, other than to record your own child, without the consent of the School or the relevant member of the school community. Nothing should be posted on external social media unless consent has been given from all parties involved. ▪ Defamatory, offensive, or derogatory comments regarding the School or any of any members of the School community on any form of media, such as social media, messaging groups, print media, etc. Social Media and messaging groups are not a legitimate platform for discussing matters in relation to the School. Any concerns should be raised through official school channels, incorporating the Section or TES Leadership. ▪ The use of physical aggression towards another adult or child, which includes physically punishing your own child or chastising someone else’s child. ▪ Smoking, vaping and consumption of alcohol or drugs on school campuses or external activities and trips. 8.3 All members of the School community have a right to expect that their school is a safe and secure place. If the Civility Code is violated by any member of the school community then there may be consequences, restricting access to campuses or even legal action.
