SCHOOL RULES.
The British College of Benalmádena provides its students with an environment in which they can feel safe, cared for and supported, in which they can adequately develop their individual skills, helping them to face the modern world in an autonomous and critical way, preparing them to participate positively in society and in the various professional fields to which they may one day have access.
To achieve these objectives, we encourage our students to accept responsibility and be tolerant, to understand the point of view of others, to help their peers and to maintain a high standard of work, to the best of their ability.
In addition, they must maintain a code of conduct based essentially on respect for their teachers and their peers, as well as on some basic rules that, although obvious, are important to remember:
1. Students must arrive at school on time.
2. During school hours, the pupils are the responsibility of the school and their teachers and therefore, they must always follow their indications.
3. A lack of respect towards peers or teachers will not be tolerated at any time.
4. No type of bullying, neither psychological, physical or cyber will be tolerated under any circumstances.
5. To help their fellow students whenever necessary, to protect the younger ones and be friendly towards everybody is a golden rule for our students.
6. All the school uniform must be worn by all students throughout the school.
7. Students should not bring any valuable items to school. If for any reason they have to do so, they must hand it into the office for safekeeping.
8. Mobiles phones are TOTALLY FORBIDDEN.
9. The school keeps an exhaustive record of the absences of the students and immediately contacts the parents if a child is absent. We therefore beg parents to notify the school of any absences that they might know of in advance, such as doctor’s and dentist’s appointments, etc.
10. Any work missed through absence will have to be made up, including internal examinations.
11. Obviously, smoking or drinking alcohol is TOTALLY FORBIDDEN in school.
12. Students must look after their own belongings and respect others’, as well as the school’s.
