Code of Conduct
Code of Conduct - Updated June 2024
At Queen Mary, we build a respectful community of lifelong learners. We work towards becoming caring, accomplished and cooperative citizens. We aim to provide an enriched environment in which children are encouraged to think, question, create and wonder.
Our Code of Conduct establishes and maintains a caring, respectful, safe learning environment where all children, staff, parents and caregivers try their best, treat others with kindness, and respect the environment. Our Code of Conduct aligns with the Vancouver School Board’s District Code of Conduct and adheres to BC’s Human Rights Code.
Queen Mary Elementary promotes the values expressed in the BC Human Rights Code – Students shall not discriminate against others on the basis of Indigenous identity, race, religion, colour, ancestry, place of origin, marital status, family status, age, sex or sexual orientation, gender identity/expression, or physical or mental disability, or for any other reason set out in the Human Rights Code of British Columbia, nor shall a student publish or display anything that would indicate an intention to discriminate against another, or expose them to contempt or ridicule, on the basis of any such grounds. Racism and discrimination will not be tolerated in our school.
