What this means

This is the Learners' Code of Conduct of Wynberg Girls' Junior School, a 20-page behavioural policy document revised in August 2026. It sets out the purpose and principles of the school's discipline code, aligned with the South African Schools Act 84 of 1996 as amended by the Basic Education Laws Amendment Act, 2024, and states that it replaces all previous versions. It commits the school to a restorative justice approach, the four 'Be Rules' (Be respectful, Be responsible, Be kind, Be healthy), absolute prohibition of corporal punishment and initiation practices, and zero tolerance of bullying and cyber misconduct, with sections on offences, sanctions, search and seizure, suspension and expulsion, exemptions and review. The document also records its version history and the officials who drafted and updated it between January 2023 and August 2026.
