Our
Approach
The school's approach towards discipline is for every pupil
to take ownership in ensuring exemplary conduct. The school
believes that discipline is more than correct behaviour but
an attitude that reflects integrity, responsibility, perseverance
and teachability. Therefore, the reactive approach is used
complementarily with the proactive approach to build up in
every Fairsian the value of self-discipline. The school would
also spot potential students at risk and approach them in
order to help them.
We believe in being firm in discipline and yet will exercise
love for the students we discipline. Harsh measures will be
taken against any student who blatantly refuses to heed the
school rules and the warnings. We also believe in following
up with pupils who are being punished. Pupils who have been
disciplined will also be referred to the Pupil Welfare Department
for counselling. The purpose of the counselling is to help
the pupil deal with the presenting problem and to be equipped
with coping skills.
Behaviour Monitoring
A pupil spends most of his/her time in the classroom and
it is also a place where academic learning takes place. In
order to maintain a conducive environment for learning, we
monitor every pupil very closely by maintaining a Class Management
File. Form and subject teachers can use the file to record
any offences a pupil might commit during curriculum time or
while he/she is in school. If a pupil commits any major offences,
he/she will be referred to the Discipline Master or Level
Head, Discipline.
Collaboration
We strongly believe in working together with the parents in
the discipline and follow-up process that a child goes through
when he commits offences. Whenever a child commits minor offences,
the Level Discipline or Form Teacher will inform the parents
of the misdeeds so that the parents are in the know. This
is done either through phone calls or through warning letters.
In the case when serious offences being committed, the parents
would be informed and a meeting will be arranged between the
parents and the school to work out an agreement how we can
help the child to correct his behaviour.
