Annexe 10: Community Service
Traditional disciplinary actions, such as detention and suspension, often fail to address the root causes of
misbehaviour or provide students with opportunities for growth. Instead of only punitive measures that may
alienate students from the school community, the Policy on Disruptive Behaviour at Aitchison College provides
a structure for community service.
Community service as a disciplinary measure not only holds students accountable for their actions but also
instills a sense of responsibility, empathy, and civic duty. By engaging in meaningful activities that benefit
others, students learn valuable life lessons about teamwork, respect, and the impact of their behaviour on
society. This approach will help Aitchison College foster a positive environment where discipline is seen not
just as punishment but as an opportunity for personal and social development.
The Policy on Disruptive Behaviour at Aitchison College fosters responsibility, and shapes students into
well-rounded individuals; incorporating community service as a sanction offers a more constructive approach.
All community service sanctions will be assigned for a duration of 1 week (5 school days) or for 3 hours for two
consecutive Saturdays. The student sanctioned with community service will be responsible for getting the
community service record form filled by the supervising individual. See annexe 17 for the form.
The list of community service sanctions that will be used are as follows:
● Managing the notice boards for 1 week (this may also include designing them).
● Working with the environmental/humanitarian society e.g. to plant trees, organize blood drives, etc for 1
week.
● Shelving books and working at the Syed Babar Ali Library front desk for 3 hours on 2 consecutive
Saturdays.
● Reading to students in Junior boarding or helping them with homework under supervision for 1 week.
● Assisting sports coaches/games departments in after school practice without participating in the actual
sport. This may include looking after the sporting equipment.
● Cleaning the stables.
● Washing dishes after meal time at boarding for 1 week. Any student (day boy or border) can be assigned to
any boarding school (SS/PS/JS) for this.
● Cleaning the campus and working under the sanitation /garden & grounds department for 1 week.
● Setting up chairs and tables in classrooms after school for 1 week.
● Working with archives departments for 1 week.
● Assisting the college dispensaries /doctors for 1 week after school.
● Paid internships/community service at an affiliated organisation. The student will be responsible for
making the payments and organizing visits.
