Scugog trustee Rev. Stuart McEntyre chaired the sub- committee which worked on the draft policy since last November. In a recent interview with the Star, Rev. McEntyre said as far as he is concerned the most important aspect of the draft policy is the provision for a Code of Behavior for both students and staff which will be drawn up by individual schools within the Board's jusisdiction. "I hope this Code of Be- havior would have the potential to become a teaching document within the schools," he said. He said the purpose of the Code willbe to communicate clearly to students, teachers and parents by way of an actual printed handbook, and to show 'in very clear terms' just what kind of behavior is expected. Some of the regulations suggested for inclusion in the Code of - Behavior for students range from attending classes regularly, the exercise of self-discipline courtesy to other students and teachers, co-operation, sharing in keeping the schools clean and orderly, and refraining from conduct "injurious to the moral tone of the school." Examples of this cited in the draft policy would be bullying, profanity, "dishonesty, destruction of school property, and use of ° alcohol or drugs. Concerning staff, the policy statements suggests the Code should refer to such things as the maintenance of proper order and discipline, the fostering of a sense of self-worth and self-discipline in students, and the clear outlining of realistic and effective consequences for failure to live up to it. While Rev. McEntyre said he believes the development of Codes of Behavior to be the most important element of the policy, he acknow- ledged that the section of the draft policy dealing with physical punishment could be the most controversial. The policy statement says the deliberate use of force as punishment and the use of physical punishment should "be discontinued by 1984." The policy statement goes on to say that "the Board believes that physical punishment is an un- desireable means of conflict resolution, violence begets violence, and physical punishment does nothing to remediate the causes of " children's misbehaviog." However, the statement recognizes that physical force may have to be used "in self-defence, to protect a student from another in- dividual, or to protect a studént ~ from . a life- threatening situation.' "The draft policy mentions other methods of discipline which should be considered unacceptable in the schools. These include the assign- ment of academic material as -punishment; public apologies (beyond those persons affected by misbe- havior and reduction of marks as punishment). The sub-committee which drew up this draft policy on discipline consisted of three trustees, three school principals, two superinten- dents and"a rep from the Teachers Federation. Rev. McEntyre said the committee members were in total agreement about the need for written Codes of Behavior for use in the schools, but there was dis- agreement on the sections referring to discipline and physical force. He said now that the Board has accepted the document; the nine-page draft policy statement will be several months going through the 'consultative process by teachers, principals and parent advisory groups throughout Durham Region.
