Discipline
Nanyang Primary School maintains high discipline standards within the school. For offences such as the use of vulgarities, stealing or copying work, the pupil receives a pink slip and the parents are notified.
If the pupil has three pink slips,depending on how severe what they did was, they will be sent for detention with the Discipline Master. If the pupil receives any more pink slips, the punishment will be more serious: girls are suspended, while boys receive the cane. The cane strokes are administered to the back of the offender's shorts by the Discipline Master.

Famous quotes containing the word discipline:
“Good discipline is more than just punishing or laying down the law. It is liking children and letting them see that they are liked. It is caring enough about them to provide good, clear rules for their protection.”
—Jeannette W. Galambos (20th century)
“How happy is the one whom God reproves; therefore do not despise the discipline of the Almighty. For he wounds, but he binds up; he strikes, but his hands heal.”
—Bible: Hebrew, Job 5:17-18.
“To try to control a nine-month-old’s clinginess by forcing him away is a mistake, because it counteracts a normal part of the child’s development. To think that the child is clinging to you because he is spoiled is nonsense. Clinginess is not a discipline issue, at least not in the sense of correcting a wrongdoing.”
—Lawrence Balter (20th century)
