Rules & Behaviour
Philosophy
At Burkevale Protestant Separate School, we believe that students are entitled to a safe, secure and stimulating learning environment, where respect for self, others and the environment is as important as academic learning. An important goal of the school is to help students develop self-discipline and social skills so that they can become productive, mature and responsible members of society.
Code of Conduct
The Protestant Separate School Board of the Town of Penetanguishene endeavours to provide a safe, welcoming, and inclusive working and learning environment for staff and students.
The Provincial Code of Conduct, applies to students, teachers, education workers, parents/guardians, and volunteers, whether they are on school property, in virtual environments, on school buses, at school-related events or activities, in before-and after-school programs, or in other circumstances that could have an impact on the school climate.
