Nicotine Abuse and Bullying

Can Pinnacle College address the following issues please:

1. The school is becoming a safe space for the use of nicoteine. In the last parent meeting the informal conversations with other parents made it very clear that the school is a safe heaven for the use of nicotine. Can a clear plan of action be articulated as it doesn’t help to protect kids from home and they go to a place wheee they should be protected but they not.

2. For the amount of money it’s costs to ensure that there is school inform. Majority of the kids are not presentable in their school colors. Is there no pride in wearing the school colors?

3. Bullying is common practice. 2 of my kids in lower grades have comeback home in the recent past crying. One was told by a fellow leaner that she is not good at anything.

4. Informally so one parent said some of the things happening there can be attributed to teacher turnover.

It is a good school, please just do the bare minimum. To ensure protection of learners and healthy behaviour amongst the learners. As you increase the fees please ensure that an effort is also increased in upholding your mission statement. “A meaningful student experience”
