College Rules Introduction

Llandovery College is rightly proud of the behaviour, manners and general attitude of its pupils. All members of the community benefit when conduct is good. This relies as much on the common sense of individuals and the collective responsibility of the community than on Rules and in any community there are ‘unwritten rules’ which are reasonable and customary. Trust is of paramount importance and believing in the good sense of individuals allows the number of rules to be kept down and the wording kept short.

Also, participation in a community does not place the individual beyond the Law of the Land. The rule of Law is for the protection and betterment of society as a whole; to break the Law is not only a breach of College Rules, but also renders the individual liable to any penalties which that Law provides.

These rules will be amended from time to time and shall continue to apply as long as a pupil is a pupil at the College, regardless of his or her age. Regulations apply to boarders throughout the term while in residence at the College and to Day pupils daily from the time they leave home in the morning until they arrive home in the evening, unless specifically stated otherwise.

All pupils are reminded that they should at no time bring the name of the College into disrepute or behave in a manner that is at odds with the College Mission Statement.

Where reference is made to other non-stated guidelines, rules or policies, these will be posted in Houses and in the main College and clarification can be sought from HM’s.

Failure to meet standards may lead to a pupil’s loss of privileges or withdrawal of an Award and may put a pupil’s place at the College in jeopardy, particularly in cases of ‘Serious Offence’.

Expectations The following expectations are made of Llandoverians and form the basis of the College’s ethos:

• they are ambassadors for the College and should act accordingly at all times • they should take a pride in their work and contribute to a positive and stimulating learning

environment • they should seek out a variety of skills for development in both the academic and non-academic

arenas • they should always strive for the good of the whole community and represent the College with

pride • they should promote an orderly, constructive and supportive atmosphere • they should always be courteous and act with respect for others • they should read and comply with the Rules of the College.
