• Only interact with students for authorised reasons and allow staff to supervise, investigate and manage students without interference
• Discuss issues or concerns about the school, staff or students through the correct procedures

Any person contravening this Code of Conduct is advised that the provisions of the Enclosed Lands Protection Act (1901) and its Amendments will be followed if any of the following occur:
• Actual physical assaults or threatened physical assaults on students, staff, parents or community members at the school or during the course of school activities;
