​​​Our CBE Student Code of Conduct and CBE Progressive Student Discipline regulation apply to all of our students. They outline the roles and expectations for our students to promote positive and inclusive learning environments, help students to develop empathy and become good citizens both within and outside of the school community, and explain the consequences when a student’s disruptive behaviour negatively affects the learning environment.

Our CBE Employee Code of Conduct applies to all of our employees. The CBE maintains high standards for the conduct of its employees, and expects them to conduct themselves honestly and with integrity and exercise common sense, good judgement and discretion.​​​​

Code of Conduct

Behaviour Expectations

Our goal is to assist students to grow into caring, fulfilled and responsible adults. The school’s role is to assist students in making responsible choices and decisions. We encourage the development of self discipline and positive self-concept. Parents support involvement is vital.

Discipline begins in the home. The behaviours the student brings into the school come from the home first and then from their surrounding community as they grow and develop. While the students have a “right” to an education, that right comes with, and demands, certain responsibilities.
