In circular 20/90 the Department of Education and Science presented a
suggested Code of Behaviour and Discipline for National Schools.
The following strategies may be used to show disapproval of unacceptable
behaviour:-
Reasoning with the pupil;
Reprimand (including advice on how to improve);
Temporary separation from peers, friends or others;
Loss of privileges;
Detention during a break or after school hours;
Prescribing additional work;
Referral to principal;
Communication with parents;
Suspension (Temporary); and
Expulsion.
immediately by the Principal.
This may result in suspension from school. Suspensions can
be for one, two or three days. The suspension of a pupil from school is a very
serious matter. A pupil who is suspended will lose ten stamps, in addition to
two for each day that he is suspended. In effect, this means that a suspended
pupil will lose twelve, fourteen or sixteen Positive Discipline Stamps.
