Rules<br />

Discipline is taken seriously at <strong>President</strong><br />

<strong>Kennedy</strong> <strong>School</strong>. We believe that children who<br />

know what is expected of them feel secure in<br />

their environment. Discipline issues are dealt<br />

with effectively and quickly by our staff and<br />

parents/carers are contacted when the need<br />

arises.<br />

Students are encouraged to take responsibility<br />

for their actions whilst in school and<br />

representing the school.<br />

<strong>President</strong> <strong>Kennedy</strong> <strong>School</strong> emphasizes and<br />

rewards good behaviour by awarding points and<br />

giving praise wherever possible.<br />

Uniform is strictly enforced in school.<br />
