The Students Council

The Student’s Council provides a forum for students to voice their opinions and make recommendations in connection with the running of the school. It seeks to provide a line of communication between students, management, staff and parents, representing the views of the student body on matters of concern to them. Our aim is to create a caring school environment, which is supportive and inclusive.

In Duiske College, our Student Council is made up of elected representatives from every year group. Those students elected as members of the Student Council get an opportunity to develop communication and leadership skills, as well as responsibility and accountability. Our Student Council is a valuable resource to management, teachers and other students in our school.

Code of Behaviour

Duiske College prides itself on the quality of relationships between students and staff. Within this context Duiske College’s first instinct is to praise and reward students who reach the positive behaviour standards we wish for.  

An important part of the school’s Code of Behaviour is the effort made to acknowledge the good behaviour of our students Primarily, the individual teacher praises and affirms good behaviour and constantly liaises with Class Teachers, School Management and the Student Support Team to appropriately reward and highlight incidents of good behaviour.
