South Australian Consolidated Regulations (1) Having regard to
the rights and duties of students, parents and teachers within the school
policies and rules established under regulation 38, head teachers may impose
such moderate and reasonable controls on the behaviour of students, and
sanctions for offences against those rules, as they consider necessary or as
are permitted by these regulations.
(2) Subject to these
regulations, head teachers may delegate their disciplinary authority,
including the imposition of appropriate sanctions on students for breaches of
school rules, to such members of their staffs as they determine. This
delegation shall not prevent head teachers from exercising directly their own
power to impose sanctions on students where they consider it necessary or
advisable to do so.
(3) A teacher may, in
addition to imposing on a student any sanction that is in accordance with
school policy, detain a student during the luncheon interval or after school
hours subject to any conditions determined by the Minister.
