Our solution
Create a student code of ethics [designed by students for students] that will encourage the right types of behaviour and actions in Somerville students. This code of ethics will have a huge impact in our school and will go along way to solve the day to day problems some of us face.

Why ethics
Ethics are woven into everything we do. In any given moment we are either acting ethically or unethically. Ethics are like virtues/morals in that they define how we live our lives and can powerfully impact the lives of those around us.
Wednesday, 23 November 11
What are ethics?
Ethics are related to human action. They define what is right and wrong. Ethics seek to define good behaviour and what should be valued.
Wednesday, 23 November 11
The difference between laws and ethics
Laws are written, approved and enforced by the government. They are clear and usually logical.
Ethics are like rules of conduct. They are actions closely related to morals and virtues that society believes it should have. Break an ethic and you will likely face disapproval from your peers, family and/or the community.

Cyber SafetyPart of our solution to
some of the dangers we face in an increasingly cyber world was to create a series of educational videos aimed at keeping ourselves safe online.
