Yan Oi Tong Tin Ka Ping Secondary School

Discipline Team

Introduction

Discipline is essential to an individual's complete and all-rounded development. Discipline refers to well-established and widely accepted rules and standards of behaviours. Compliance with these rules and standards of behaviours is required for individuals to conduct theMs.elves in the society and for countries to maintain governance and stability. The role of the Discipline Team is therefore to teach and counsel students on compliance with school rules. Work directions of the Discipline Team are formulated based on matters of school-based concerns. With an emphasis on persuasive reasoning, school rules are implemented, and students'non-compliant behaviours are handled with a multi-faceted and positive approach. It is through compliance with school rules and maintenance of good discipline and order that the rights of students can be maintained and a good atmosphere for learning can be created. We expect righteous behaviours from students so that they can establish theMs.elves and help establish others. By carrying forward the school's motto of "establishing oneself to establish others" on the basis of the school's harmonious and orderly culture, the Discipline Team creates a learning environment enriched with a sense of morality; enhances communication, coordination and collaboration between Morality, Discipline, Counselling Team teachers, other teachers and parents; and cultivates correct values among students.
