deep-seated culture of respect across code of conduct
colour, creed and background, as What is more important, though, is
outlined in the school’s Mission that the College’s Code of Conduct
ensures that the common thread of
respect, openness and inclusivity is
firmly embedded in every aspect of
daily school activities. The Code of
Conduct provides a framework for
orderly and purposeful education but
eschews traditional punitive measures
in favour of a “restorative, responsible
and self-disciplined approach.” It puts
forward “enjoyment and fellowship
with peers” as an integral part of
a healthy learning environment
and promises action when
presented with viable concerns.
This set of fundamental values and
principles is underpinned by a strong
recognition of reciprocal fairness and
social justice. It promotes a student-
centric approach to education,
encouraging individualism
and self-efficacy; diversity and
inclusion; and fostering respect for
cultural and religious differences.
St Peter’s College’s approach aims
to prepare its students for life way
beyond their school years and
promotes acceptance of each
stakeholder’s role and responsibilities
within the school system.
