Code of Discipline
Our Code of Discipline is based on reward as well as on compliance and sanction. Ecole de Lorette de Vacoas places great emphasis on rewards and encouragement and also acknowledges the need for sanctions to deal with unacceptable behaviour and attitudes. A copy of the code of discipline is given to Parents or Responsible Parties when a child enters school.
