Professional development opportunity
All forms go to the Professionalism Team within the School for review, triage and further action as necessary. When concerns have been raised, students are encouraged to reflect on their conduct and the circumstances of the incident(s). Lower-level concerns will generate a professionalism development opportunity (PDO).
Examples of a PDO include:
Professionalism lapse
More serious concerns will raise a professionalism lapse. In this case, students are required to submit a written reflection and will also be required to meet with senior staff. Any further action will depend on the nature and gravity of the circumstances.
Examples of a professionalism lapse include:
Form guidance
The PDO’s and professionalism lapses listed are examples and other breaches of professionalism will be raised under the relevant category.
Only staff and educators can complete a form to raise concerns about a student’s professional conduct. A student who wishes to raise concerns should approach their Personal Tutor or the Lead for Professionalism.
