School discipline Policy

When parents enrol their children at Baldwin Farm Area High School, they entrust us with their growth and future. We honour this trust by combining quality education with a focus on nurturing responsible and respectful individuals.

Discipline serves as the foundation of this journey. Our teachers lead by example, acting as the epitome of guidance and core principles. The School Advisory Board prioritises a disciplined environment to ensure every student succeeds. We encourage both parents and students to review the school diary for our official code of conduct and behavioural expectations.

To address misconduct effectively, we implement the following corrective measures:


Yellow Card

We issue a Yellow Card to students from Class 4 onwards for the following actions:

  • Skipping school, classes, assembly, library, or PE sessions.
  • Cheating during tests or formal examinations.
  • Bringing mobile phones or electronic gadgets (we will confiscate these items).
  • Bursting crackers within or near the school premises.
  • Arriving at school in a self-driven vehicle (car, scooter, or bike).
  • Disrupting classroom activities through persistent indiscipline.
  • Engaging in group misconduct or hooliganism.
  • Using abusive or inappropriate language.
  • Damaging school property (we may impose a financial fine).
  • Arriving late to school or classes habitually.
  • Wearing an improper uniform or forgetting the diary, badge, or ID card repeatedly.
  • Failing to get teacher remarks in the diary signed by a parent or guardian.


Note: Accumulating three Yellow Cards results in the issuance of one Red Card.

Red Card

  • We issue a Red Card to students from Class 4 onwards for serious misconduct, including
  • Smoking, drinking, or consuming prohibited substances.
  • Engaging in ragging, bullying, or any form of harassment.
  • Committing acts of physical violence.
  • Involvement in a police case (this may lead to immediate rustication after a management review).

Note:
One Red Card (or three Yellow Cards) may lead to immediate suspension.
A second Red Card may result in rustication from the school, subject to a final review by the management.
