Policies
Policy and operational guidelines support student wellbeing, school operations, curriculum delivery and administrative management of our daily operations.
Child Safety and Wellbeing
At Catherine McAuley College Bendigo, our Student Code of Conduct is more than a set of rules - it’s a reflection of our commitment to nurturing a respectful, safe, and thriving learning environment. Embedded in the Mercy Values that shape our College culture, the Code provides a clear framework for positive behaviour both within and beyond the classroom.
It guides students in developing pro-social behaviours that align with community expectations and supports them in becoming responsible, respectful, and engaged members of society. Whether on campus, in transit, or representing the College at events, students are expected to act with integrity, courtesy, and pride.
By upholding these shared standards, we create a community where every student is empowered to learn, grow, and serve.
