DISCIPLINE
DISCIPLINE POLICY
The school’s stance on discipline is explained during parent training.
Arrows of Destiny CA believes in a Biblical approach to discipline. We are governed by the values,
norms and codes of conduct laid down in the Bible and practised by the Christian community.
Discipline is based on love, care and concern for each learner. External discipline is applied when
internal or self-discipline still needs to be trained in the life of the child. External discipline leads to selfdiscipline. All disciplinary action needs to have repentance and training as its objective. The
responsibility for a child’s discipline as with his/her education is place with the parent by God. This
responsibility is delegated to the school, as the school acts ‘in parentis locus’ (in place of the
parent). Where there is an on-going disciplinary problem the school will discuss this with the parent
and a joint strategy to assist the child is decided upon.
From time to time learners may take issue with the disciplinary actions applied by the staff. Please
note the following points should your child complain about any disciplinary action:
 Realise that the child’s report may not include all the information
 Give the staff the benefit of the doubt
 Realise there are reasons for the procedures and rules laid down in the school
 Support the school by calling at the school to obtain all the facts relating to the
discipline
SUSPENSION AND EXPULSION
SUSPENSION
Suspension will be considered where all other forms of correction have had no effect or should an
action be of such unacceptable nature that suspension would be justified.
Only the Principal may suspend the child, this will be done in consultation with the school and
church counsel.
Suspension would be accompanied by appropriate counselling activities.
Suspension shall be for a period deemed appropriate for the circumstances by the Principal, with a
minimum of one day and a maximum of three weeks.
A period of suspension may be followed by a period of probation at the discretion of the Principal.
EXPULSION
Should all the other corrective activities not achieve the required results, and the deviant behaviour
of the child has not been rectified, the parents will be requested to remove the child from the
14 school. This will be done by the Principal in consultation with the parents, staff and appropriate
church council members. It must be remembered that this is an extreme measure and would be
applied with extensive consultation and counselling. Three verbal warnings will be administered.
Expulsion may also be applied when the learner’s behaviour has been of such a reprehensible
nature that their continued presence in the school would be detrimental to the other leaners, staff or
the school.
COMMUNICATION
a. From the school
The parents-envelope system – all newsletters, notices, accounts and other important information will
be sent home with the learners. Parents are required to sign and return the envelope to school the
following day.
Homework Books – each learner will receive a homework book every term. These will be sent home
on a daily basis with communications and reminders from school. Homework will be recorded in the
books that is due the following day. These books must be checked and signed daily by the parent.
In this way parents are kept aware of their child’s daily activities and progress, as well as day-to-day
requirements of the school. Homework books must always accompany the learner to school.
b. From the parent to the school
Please ensure that any communication, payments etc. is placed in a sealed envelope addressed to
the member of staff applicable. The school cannot take responsibility for monies or communication
that may go astray if not handed in correctly.
c. With teachers
Teachers may be spoken to before or after school on incidental issues. A formal appointment can
be made through the office to see a supervisor, administrator or principal should something of a
more serious nature need to be discussed.
No parent or member of the public may interrupt the Learning Centre or class room activities. Please
do not contact the staff on their cell phones or at home on school issues. You may contact the
Administrator or Principal if anything is of such importance.
PARENTAL INVOLEMENT
Parents have a great privilege and responsibility to be involved in the vision of Christian Education
and in the functioning of the school in and for our community. The school places great emphasis on
establishing sound, open relationships between parents and staff. The staff would welcome the
support of parents in achieving all that God has called us to accomplish in and through the learners
of Arrows of Destiny Christian Academy.
d. Parents meetings and interviews
A parent-staff interview is held at the end of the first and third terms. This is for the supervisors to give
you a brief insight into the progress of your child and for you to show your support for and interest in
your child’s education. Meetings with the Principal or relevant Supervisor must be arranged by
appointment at the school office.
e. Open Assemblies
These are held on Monday mornings at the Holy Trinity Chapel at 8am. All parents are invited to join

fundraising, voluntary reading, music, crafts, counselling, staff support or learner field trips and

We believe in the holistic development of the learner. Arrows of Destiny has a full-time sport coach
who facilitates Physical Ed. during the week. Please refer to the sport time table for details.
The school PT uniform should be worn on relevant sports days.
UNIFORM
The school is identified by its uniform and therefore the image of the school is shown to the public by
the standard we maintain. It is most important for parents to check that their child id neatly and
correctly dressed for school as well as for all extra-mural and sporting activities.
Please ensure that your child wears the correct, neat and clean uniform to school each
9
day. If he/she is unable to wear the correct uniform for any reason a letter must be sent to
