Student behaviour

The Queensland Department of Education is committed to ensuring every state school provides a respectful and inclusive learning environment, where all students can learn, achieve and reach their full potential. Working together with students, parents and the broader community, we strive to ensure school communities are supportive spaces for everyone.

The Student Code of Conduct is the school's behaviour policy and clearly sets out expectations about staff responsibilities to support students to understand and meet discipline expectations of the school, and guidance on the application, where required, of disciplinary consequences. Information about school rules, consequences, including suspension, exclusion and cancellation of enrolment, and processes for addressing bullying and cyberbullying and use of mobile devices by students can be found in this document. Each school's Student Code of Conduct is developed in consultation with the school community, provided to newly enrolled students and their parents and published on the school website.

Contact your school for more information. School contact details are available by phoning 13 QGOV (13 74 68) or searching the schools directory.
