It is the policy of the Durham District School Board to support practices that promote a safe, inclusive, and accepting school climate in all schools.

Appropriate discipline practices acknowledge the responsibility of individuals to exercise self-discipline, self-regulation and the right of individuals to equitable and fair treatment.

There will be appropriate consequences based on Bias-Aware Progressive Discipline for unacceptable student conduct as defined in Board regulation and procedure, and in school Codes of Conduct.

In the event of a serious incident, school staff will work in partnership with the school community and emergency services in order to ensure the safety of all parties.
