VISION, VALUES AND MISSION
Our Vision: Oakhill School is a happy, vibrant and dynamic
place for learning, where children flourish in an
environment that celebrates diversity, rewards creativity,
embraces discipline and produces academic excellence.
Oakhill seeks to provide a broad, balanced education that is
modern and relevant to our times and integrates the
academic, cultural, social, physical and spiritual components
necessary for a young person's development.
Our Values: The School recognizes the individuality of
each child and provides a framework in which freedom and
discipline sit comfortably with each other. Children are
encouraged to think independently and respect one
another's view point. This approach builds confidence,
strength of character, self discipline and instills a desirable
value system and moral code that enables children to make
decisions and take responsibility for their actions. The
curriculum teaches our students to respect religious
differences and allows parents to set the tone for a child's
spiritual development. Oakhill students should leave with
both life skills and the skills for life, ready to continue their
journey with confidence.
Our Mission: Preparing students for life by encouraging
them to think for themselves and take responsibility for the
consequences of their decisions, for themselves, for others
and for the environment.

OAKHILL CODE OF CONDUCT
At Oakhill, students are treated with respect, recognised as
individuals, and encouraged to develop self-discipline.
This Code of Conduct aims to facilitate a disciplined and
purposeful school environment, dedicated to improving and
maintaining the quality of education. Furthermore, this Code
aims to inculcate a value system that will serve our students well
beyond their school days.
The Code of Conduct also aims to ensure that the school 's
curricular and extracurricular programmes are executed in the
most orderly way possible to create a climate in which teaching
and learning can take place effectively . This constitutes the
“Joy of Learning”
1. PRINCIPLES
1.1. The Oakhill Code of Conduct is guided by the
following principles in its Constitution, set out
under Aims of the School.
1.1.1. To assist students in building strength of
character and an appropriate value system.
1.1.2. To encourage students to make informed
choices, and to accept responsibility for those
decisions and their consequences.
1.1.3. To provide a flexible approach to discipline with
the aim of developing students as self-disciplined
individuals.
16
2. RESPONSIBILITIES
2.1. Educators at the school subscribe to the school's
Code of Conduct and undertake [inter alia] to:
• Be punctual, well prepared and professional in
their approach to education.
• Manage learner performance effectively and
motivate learners to achieve realistic and
meaningful personal goals.
• Be sensitive to the needs of their learners and
to address learning difficulties in a positive
manner
• Praise, encourage, recognise and reward
learners who strive to achieve
• Create a classroom climate which is based on
a learning partnership which makes education
both relevant and stimulating
• Set a positive example for their learners
• Administer discipline correctively and with
dignity when necessary.
2.2. Our school prides itself on having good relations
with the school's community, its pupils and their
parents. While parents should expect the school
and its educators to provide the best education
possible with the available resources, parents
should also accept responsibility for helping the
school to achieve this goal.
TERM FOUR 2014 OAKHILL SCHOOL
17
Parents enrol their children at the school subject to their
acceptance of the school rules and other conditions of
enrolment. Parents also have the responsibility to (at least):
• Actively support the efforts of the school and its
educators to teach their children
• Involve themselves to the fullest possible extent in
school activities
• Make positive suggestions and contributions to improve
the school's education process and the learning
environment
• Support the disciplinary structures and procedures of
the school, and the reasonable efforts by the school to
apply discipline effectively and fairly
• Encourage their children to participate fully in school
and extra-mural activities
• Participate in the learning process and assist their
children with homework, provide encouragement,
check results and communicate freely with the school
• Ensure that pupils attend school regularly and ensure
attendance at all compulsory functions and activities,
and that punctuality is practised.
In terms of the SA Constitution, every pupil has the right to
education. The school strives to provide the educational
opportunities that its pupils and the community deserve.
Pupils themselves, however, must recognise that they have a
responsibility to their parents, the school, their educators,
their fellow pupils and themselves.
18
Pupils, therefore, must accept and comply with the school's
rules and its conditions of enrolment. In more general terms,
they must:
• Comply with instructions from teachers and with the
general rules of the school
• Behave responsibly and not endanger the safety, welfare
and rights of others
• Respect and care for the property of the school and of
others
• Maintain sound relations with others, be courteous and
respect the dignity and self-worth of others
• Be punctual
• Demonstrate a positive attitude towards learning and
be diligent in their efforts
• Behave honestly and conduct themselves with integrity
• Accept legitimate disciplinary action taken against them.
