Rules and regulations
Rules and procedures in force at the school, with information on whom they apply to.
Where rules come from
Most rules are introduced by the head teacher by order, after consulting the teachers' council. On student matters, the Student Council also gives its opinion.
There are two exceptions. The Student Council rules are adopted by the students, and the Parents' Council rules by the Parents' Council itself.
Every set of rules must comply with the statute. If there is a discrepancy, the statute applies and we correct the rules.
