Schools can create secure and respectful spaces for students’ personal and academic growth by setting clear guidelines for behaviour and addressing any issues promptly.

Educational institutions play a vital role in creating a safe and positive learning atmosphere. All forms of corporal punishment are strictly prohibited in schools across the country, ensuring that students feel safe from physical punishment and abuse.

Promoting positive behaviour is a priority, particularly when addressing misconduct among students. However, private schools in Abu Dhabi are prohibited from using the following methods for student discipline:

  • Corporal punishment (use of physical force to discipline or punish)
  • Disclosing personal information without consent
  • Psychological punishment (verbal abuse, issuing threats)
  • Locking a student inside the school premises
  • Seizing student’s belongings without a resolution by the behavioural management committee
  • Lowering or threatening to lower the student’s academic grade/score
  • Punishing a group for an individual’s misconduct
  • Imposing additional schoolwork
  • Mocking, insulting, or demeaning the student in private or in public
  • Preventing the student from using toilet facilities or consuming water and food
  • Detention outside of official school hours without parental consent
