Title : A report on disciplinary cases in SME High School To
: Mr. Choi Minho , the Principal of SME High School
Nowadays, there is a rise in disciplinary cases in SME High School. A lot of cases have been reported to the school authorities during the last semester until today. The cases are being reported by students from different forms and this clearly shows that disciplinary cases occur among students without specific age. As the Head Prefect of SME High School, I notice that all of these cases are worrying all the school members and these things will definitely give the bad effects to our school. The high disciplinary cases recorded in school will bleak the school’s reputation in future. We have to take it seriously to pr event these matters from being increased day by day.
One of the factors causing the increase in disciplinary cases is the lack of parents’ attention. attention. During this millenium of technology and reformations, everybody seems to be so busy with their work including majority of or students’ parents. As the results, the students become wilder and naughtier without their parents’ care. Also, the lack of parents’ attention causes the students who are teenagers to find their own company who are among their ages. This matter will indirectly leads to peer pressure. Friends are the people who are the most intimate to all students or teenagers. They are easily influenced by their peers according to whom they befriend. Its become an enormous problem when these students choose the wrong one as their friends. The negative friends will definitely lead the teenagers to be bad students. For example, bad students usually behave rudely towards the teachers and being vandalism just to satisfy their ownselves. They always like to damage school property such as public phone booths, school desks, chairs and many more.
Lack of moral values among students is also a factor that contributes to the increasing of disciplinary cases in our school. Without good care from the families and teachers, these students are gradually become less polite and have less moral values in themselves. Positive moral values are very important for a person in order to have a good manner in life. Lack of moral values will definitely promote to many more cases and problems. Next, due to the influence from the peers and with less
moral values in students, they will also have no interest in studies. Some of them are even go to school with only one simple reason which is having fun with their friends. They used to be ignorance about their studies and do not take lessons as a serious matter. This thing will cause larger problem to be occured such as the students’ achievement in academic will be deteriorating.
On the other hand, disciplinary cases are also increasing as the students are being effected by the influence from mass media. Nowadays, all students are always being exposed to the improper a ct and scene of dramas or shows from the mass media. Teenagers are one of the levels in growth stage which people experience to be more easily influenced by others. In other words, all of the students who are also called teenagers are easily influenced by those dramas either it has negative affects or not. For improper dramas, the acts usually give the bad effects to students like stealing, vandalisms, playing truants and also skip classes. These exposures will affect teenagers to do the same thing as shown. Furthermore, financial problems that are undergo by certain students from the poor families background usually lead them to commit the crime in school such as stealing. At first, they commit this crime when they are really desperate and sooner they become addict to steal. For my suggestions,parents need to spend more time with their children instead of working non-stop at their offices. Children at teenage level need more attention as their hormones changing and increasing at this stage. Besides, couselling session and ‘Craing School’ Programmeshould be held to help these teenagers to face their problems and complicated situations at school. Then, motivational talks are also one effective way of slowly changing the students’ attitude and reduce disciplinary cases. To be more impressive, we need to invite the famous and well – known motivators in order to encourage our students in improving themselves.
My next suggestion is that we have stress the students on moral values because moral lesson is the basic of being polite and discipline in life. For stressing on moral values, we should have an enforcement of school rules. We must add more punishments for the naugthty and mischievous
students who love to break the school rules. We have to strengthen the rules so that the quantity of students who are always breaking the o rdinance will be decrease and becomes a minor ity.
In a nutshell, all of the school authorities need to play the parts for changing the attitudes of our students. If everybody play the roles together, the disciplinary cases in our school will gradually decreasing so that we can gain our high reputation again soon. Thats all reports from me for now. We as the SME High School’s prefects will be more determine and strict in our duties and responsibilities. Thank you and please consider our suggestions above.
