This policy governs student behaviour and outlines procedures for managing conduct-related issues.

Disciplinary matters are categorized based on severity and type, including academic dishonesty, harassment, disruption, and other misconduct.

ACE communicates this policy during orientation and makes it available via the website and student handbook.

All students must familiarize themselves with and adhere to ACE’s conduct policies. Students are expected to behave respectfully and supportively within the learning environment. ACE maintains a zero-tolerance stance on misconduct.

For a student with psychological issues, refer the student to the external trained counsellor / agency for pastoral counselling.
