We are committed to creating a safe, respectful and productive educational environment. Our Disciplinary Policy serves as a cornerstone in upholding these values. The policy outlines the procedures for managing a student conduct, reporting and investigating violations, as well as the consequences for any breaches of our code of conduct.
Whether it’s minor infractions that lead to counselling sessions or more serious violation that require the convening of our Disciplinary Committee, we have established a transparent and fair system to address all level of misconduct. This is all part or our comprehensive approach to maintaining a high standard of behaviour within our academic community.
Understanding the importance of class attendance in academic success, the policy outlines the responsibilities and procedures to keep both students and staff on the same page regarding attendance expectations
- If you miss 7 consecutive days of class, your Student Pass will be cancelled
- If a student's monthly average attendance rate falls below 90% a series of warning letters will be issued. Subsequent actions may include disciplinary action and potential cancellation of the Student Pass.
Proper filing of Medical Certificates (MCs) and Students Leave Application Forms are required for approved absences.
Students are informed about the attendance policy through the student orientation and student handbook.
The Assessment Policy is to guide both students and faculty through the procedures and expectations surrounding academic assessments.
The objective of this policy is multi-fold:
- To ensure transparency in the evaluation process
- To uphold academic integrity and quality in assessments
- To provide a standardized approach for the preparation, execution, and grading of examinations and assignments
- To outline the appeal mechanisms for assessment results
- To guide faculty in designing rigorous, fair, and relevant assessment methods
We encourage all members of the Kingston International College community to familiarize themselves with this policy, as it is integral to our commitment to academic rigor and fairness. Whether you are a student preparing for an examination, an instructor designing an assessment, or an administrative staff member involved in the logistical aspects, this policy provides invaluable insights into our institutional approach to assessments.
