Code Of Conduct

At JMP EDUHUB, our mission is to create a nurturing and inclusive environment where every child can thrive academically, socially, and emotionally. Our Code of Conduct establishes the behavioral standards and expectations for students, staff, and families to ensure a safe, respectful, and productive preschool experience. This comprehensive document outlines the principles and guidelines that support our educational philosophy and community values.

1. General Conduct

• Respect and Courtesy:

  All members of the JMP EDUHUB community are expected to interact with one another using kindness, respect, and consideration. This includes valuing diverse perspectives, listening attentively, and communicating politely.

  Safety is paramount. Adherence to safety protocols, including emergency procedures and playground rules, is required. Report any unsafe conditions or behaviors immediately to ensure a safe learning environment for all.

• Attendance:

  Regular attendance is essential for a child’s development. Parents must notify the school of any absences and ensure their children arrive on time. Persistent tardiness or absenteeism can hinder academic progress and social integration.

  Students are encouraged to use peaceful conflict resolution techniques. Teachers will guide students in resolving disputes, managing emotions, and developing positive interpersonal skills.

3. Dress Code

• Appropriate Attire:

  Students should wear comfortable and practical clothing suited for play and learning activities. Clothing should be free of inappropriate slogans or imagery and should allow for ease of movement.

• Footwear:

  Closed-toe shoes are mandatory to ensure safety during physical activities. Sandals, flip-flops, or shoes with high heels are discouraged due to safety concerns.

• Personal Hygiene:

  Regular personal hygiene, including cleanliness and grooming, is important. Students should practice good hygiene habits such as washing hands and maintaining clean hair and nails.

4. Health and Wellness

• Health Check-Ups:

  Parents should inform the school of any pre-existing health conditions or allergies. Regular health check-ups are recommended to ensure children are fit to participate in school activities.

• Medication Policy:

  Any medication required during school hours must be administered by authorized personnel. Parents must provide written consent and instructions for medication administration.

• Illness Policy:

  Children exhibiting symptoms of contagious illnesses or fever should remain at home. A doctor’s note may be required for re-admission following an illness, especially if it involves contagious conditions.

5. Discipline Policy

• Positive Reinforcement:

  We emphasize positive reinforcement strategies to encourage desirable behavior. Praise and rewards are used to motivate and recognize students’ achievements and good behavior.

• Behavioral Guidance:

  Teachers will offer guidance and support for behavioral issues. Strategies include one-on-one counseling, behavioral modification plans, and structured activities aimed at improving behavior.

• Parental Involvement:

  For persistent or serious behavioral issues, teachers will engage parents to discuss concerns and collaborate on strategies for improvement. Regular communication between home and school is essential.

6. Communication and Interaction

• Parent-Teacher Communication:

  We encourage ongoing communication between parents and teachers. Regular parent-teacher conferences, updates, and open lines of communication help address any concerns and support student development.

• Respectful Interaction:

  All interactions within the school community should be respectful. Disputes or disagreements should be handled with professionalism and a focus on constructive solutions.
