Caring Behaviour Policy

Mercedes College is a Catholic school with a responsibility to provide an educational environment that promotes the dignity and respect of the person.

Each of us at Mercedes is recognised as a unique individual, thereby bringing to the College special qualities and gifts to share. We all have a right to be respected and a responsibility to respect each other.

We aim to foster caring and positive relationships with others and therefore eliminate bullying. Educational outcomes, physical health and emotional well-being will be enhanced by a focus on caring for others at Mercedes College.

Becoming a member of the Mercedes community brings rights and responsibilities. The College respects the rights of its students and staff to be free from all forms of negative behaviour including bullying.

All members of our community are expected to take responsibility to foster positive and caring behaviour.
