PREAMBL E AN D C ONTEX T. As a registered and accredited Private Higher Education Institution, the Open Window (Pty) Ltd, trading as Open Window (“OW/the Institution”) subscribes to best educational practices as established by the South African Legislation governing Higher Education Institutions and enforced by three distinct regulators: the South African Qualifications Authority (SAQA); the Department of Higher Education and Training (DHET); and the Council on Higher Education (CHE). This legislation together with the bodies that regulate this legislation has a shared primary aim to promote, manage and enforce the quality of Teaching and Learning practiced by Higher Education Institutions. Whilst institutional responsibilities with regard to the quality of Teaching and Learning, as well as its various sub-areas, are dictated through various policies constituting the institutional Academic Quality Management System (AQMS), this document serves to outline the role the Student has in contributing to the quality of Teaching and Learning offered by the Institution. The OW Student Code of Conduct applies to all registered Students at OW (hereafter referred to as ‘the Student’), and is aimed at preserving the integrity of all qualifications awarded by OW, safeguarding its norms and values. As such, the Student Code of Conduct is essential for establishing and maintaining an environment that is conducive to sound academic practices, contributing to shaping individuals who can add value to society. This Student Code of Conduct provides for appropriate corrective and punitive measures to be applied where necessary. This Code offers guidance to Students regarding their required conduct, and via this process promotes fair and lawful adjudication of disciplinary measures. It should be understood that OW Students will be held accountable for all actions or omissions within the ambit of their studies. Students are expected to promote and implement reasonable measures to protect the interests of OW as an educational institution, their fellow students, staff members, contractors and members of the public. Unprofessional, unethical and immoral conduct and dishonest practices erode academic values, integrity of research and the quality of teaching and learning.
