Additional Information

Student Behaviour Code

Students are accepted at Aiglon on the understanding that they make a sincere commitment to pursuing the general aims of Aiglon and show the effort and will to achieve them. Amongst other things, this means that students and their parents should be prepared to carefully study the expectations and statement of principles of Aiglon. This behaviour code for students contains certain specifically chosen school rules. In choosing to highlight these rules, the School is drawing attention to certain ‘markers’ which, if observed, provide a strong frame-work for a safe, healthy, supportive and self-disciplined community. Such a community is a place where the highest achievements and ideals may be successfully pursued. Students and their parents should be aware that:

• Any student who uses or possesses illegal drugs or substances, or seeks to procure them, transport them or brings them to school, cannot expect to remain a member of Aiglon. Substance testing: fully random, as well as random samples within a targeted group, are used as part of our anti-drugs programme.

• Smoking (on or off campus) is banned in the interest of health. This includes all smoking related products, for example, snuff, e-ciga-rettes, vaping or other devices / methods.

• Drinking alcohol is not permitted for all students except those in Years 12 and 13 (aged 16 or over) who, by virtue of their position and age, may have the privilege of drinking, with parental and houseparent consent, wine or beer in moderation, but not spirits, alcopops, cocktails, apéritifs or other distilled drinks.

• Possession of unauthorised sums of extra money (undeclared money exceeding the pocket money guidance) is unacceptable and will normally result in confiscation and a sanction.

18

• Respect for other people’s possessions is vitally important for the School community to thrive. Therefore, any form of theft is dealt with very seriously and may lead to suspension or expulsion.

• Insensitive, offensive behaviour, including aggression, bullying, cyber-bullying and sexual misconduct is unacceptable and may lead to suspension or expulsion.

• Public displays of intimacy which cause others to be embarrassed are totally inappropriate. Couples will not be alone together in a closed room without specific authorisation and supervision from an adult. Acts of sexual intimacy or cases where students are found in compromising situations, may lead to suspension or expulsion.

• Hate speech is seen by Aiglon as public expressions which spread, incite, promote or justify hatred, discrimination or hostility towards a specific group. Students involved in any form of hate speech will need to demonstrate, through their actions, they have learnt it is not acceptable and should they continue in this manner their place within the Aiglon community will be put in jeopardy.

• Serious breaches of school rules (usually, but not exclusively, in-volving drugs, alcohol, smoking, theft, bullying, violence, sexual misconduct) will lead to a disciplinary panel and are likely to lead to sanctions that may include suspension and expulsion.

Students and parents should be aware of the following: • The School reserves the right to administer regular and random

tests for drugs, alcohol or other substances, based on urine and/or saliva or other appropriate samples, and to take any necessary measures to prevent attempts to falsify such tests.

• Whilst the holidays are properly a time for relaxation, young people should not be given complete freedom to indulge in a lifestyle which is contrary to what is expected at School. Apart from the confusion of double standards which this creates, it markedly increases the danger of serious rule-breaking during term time

19www.aiglon.ch

Annual Information, 2018 - 2019

• In a small village community, the behaviour of Aiglon’s students in their free time and at weekends is an important factor in form-ing the School’s reputation locally. The same is particularly true of day students, given the greater freedom that they may enjoy at weekends. Day students should respect all school rules and codes of behaviour, whether that be during free time in the evenings or at weekends. The school expects the cooperation of its day parents in ensuring that their children observe this.

• Misconduct of any kind outside Aiglon, or via communications media, will be subject to school discipline if the welfare of a student, or the culture or good name of the school is placed at risk.

A full copy of the School’s handbook is available on Aiglon’s website.

Seeking Help: Advice for Students

From time to time everyone experiences difficulties and problems. At such times, it can be very helpful to talk to someone. Aiglon encourages students to seek advice from trusted, responsible adults.

Most importantly, the school wishes to foster an atmosphere of trust on the campus. Although the Houseparents and Tutors are there to help and advise, there may be occasions when students would prefer to talk to someone else. There are a number of people willing to be contacted:
