St George’s Academy use a Conduct Card Scheme, which is aimed at maintaining high basic standards. 

The scheme rewards students who always try to do the right thing and works like this: 

• Each pupil is given a conduct card at the start of every term. This card is exactly the right size to fit in a blazer top pocket and must be carried at all times. 
• On the back of the card is a list of basic standards, which must be adhered to at all times. Failure to abide by this requested conduct will result in a staff signature being placed on the conduct card. 
• The card consists of ten spaces. When the card is full of signatures, it is returned to the Student Support Office where a 1 hour after school detention will be issued. 
• A new card will then be issued marked “Card 2”, and the process starts again. 
• At the end of a term, any free spaces on the card will be turned into house points, and those who have managed to keep a clean sheet will be given 20 house points as well as qualifying for entry to further Year Group rewards. 

NOTE: Any student who cannot produce a conduct card when asked will automatically incur an after school detention. 

This is a list of the Basic Standards as printed on the back of the conduct card:

1. ​Uniform concerns
2. Late to registration or lesson (3 signatures)
3. Eating or drinking in the corridor/lesson
4. Dropping litter
5. Chewing gum/banned items
