-- Canadian schools = harsh?

Canadian schools = harsh?

is it true you are sent home from school if you swear in shcool in Canada? :S

also i heard that you can't wear what you want and that you have to get written permission to go away from the lessons (even if you only need to go to the toilet..).



sounds weird to me

is this the case in all the schools?

You call that harsh?????????!!!!!!!

when Iw as in school in Germany I had my Fingers smacked with a wodden pointing stick for laughing in class and if I mouthed at the teacher they would wack me then my parents would come and wack me. Canadian school are the most Leaniant (sp?) schools int he world. If I raise my hand at a teenie bopper for mouthing off at me they call the cops. 20 day suspensions do not discipline an individual unless it is at work and without pay.

no, no and no. If you are in elementary or junior high, you ask for permission to go pee or whatever. If you are in grade 11 or 12, we just left when we wanted to because they would know we were more reponsible for our eduction. But i guess the toilet thing must differ between schools. Um as for swearing, they dont do much in high school, but in junior high or elementary they would probably send you outside the classroom and let you sit there. Really, i dont see that as punishment, its more like a break from class

You can wear what you want unless you goto a private school that has a dress code, most likely uniforms.

all u have to say is ear muffs then u can say whatever u please

Re: Canadian schools = harsh?

well this only applies to elementary/secondary school when you're underaged..

dunno about that.. in my HS experience teachers were pretty 'lax about swearing.. they'll give you a warning or whatever. if they're totally stuck up with the rules then usually the school has the ability to send you straight home. (think it varies with the school board..)

I think that only applies to catholics schools and some public schools.. where they require you to wear uniforms. And most uniform schools are bitches about the uniform because they want you to buy shit exclusively from only a special uniform clothing manufacturer.

i dont think you need written notes for going to the washroom, just verbal permission usually..

in order to skip a class you need to have a note from your parents/guardians. I think it has more to do with "legal" issues cause the school needs to know where you are during school hours.

That's why turning 18 was great in highschool; you're considered an adult by that age & can sign yourself out

Well, by the end of "High school we needed a "hall pass" in order to be outside of the classroom during classtime ie. when u go to the washroom. These damn things were so easy to forge it was not funny.

It only applies to little little kids.. Hell, my old Physical Education teacher swore like crazy.

I can tell you that in jr highs these days, there are some pretty strict rules about clothing.
belly shirts arent allow on girls
theres some rule about your inseam being the length of your arm(so no mini skirts or short shorts)
no beer or tobacco shirt
no obscenties on shirts(FCUK have been victimized)

they make you change into your gym/phys ed clothing if you break the rules.


rules are usually set by local school boards, not nationally.

hmmm, feel somewhat safer now, but the girl who told me this had been in canada last year attending to a public high school. but yeah guess it's different in different places then.

but the problem is, i have been placed in a catholic school that will be like very strict or?

we're nothing compared to japan: link

No shirts that advertise beer or smokes?

What a bunch of political correct BS!!

I got suspended 2 days for saying 'fuck' in chem class.

oh my!

Canadian schools are very liberal, maybe more liberal than in Sweden. You can't even imagine the sex that was going on IN my high school.

Fuck that! lol

Once you get out of the Public Sector to the Uni/College its pretty open to anything. Then again those are a more mature learning setting (for the most part)

Uh Huh. Pointing stick = Physical pain = Harsh & u know what? IT WORKED! The belly tops and beer shirts n shit, yeah, they put those on riiight after they leave school when they go to their friends' houses to change.

You guys are complaining about suspensions? In Asia and Europe we GEt beats!! Fuck! I don't even wanna know waht they do in countries like Iran. Actually here is a story about an Iranian Friend I have. He had a broken arm and the teacher wacked him anyway.. on the broken arm. You guys are talking about sissy supensions and dress code here as a form of discipline. It doesn't work. If I was prime minister of this country I would give the pointing stick back to the teacher to use for other things ther than pointing. Then maybe we would have less 50 Cent/Eminem Wannabes.

On the other hand. People are so stressed out in this country and depressed that they would take advantage of the right to physically discipline children and teens. That is where IMO it becomes child abuse.

Man! I only needed a few beats in my life but by the time IW as 12 I understood why cause I saw the kids who weren't. Smoking swearing and basicaly have no future cause of the fact they did whatever they wanted. I, at that point, thanked my parents for the discipline they gave me. Otherwise I would not be who I am today because of it. But I only got it hard enough so that I feel it. I Was never bruised or antyhing like that. Well a little redness around my fingers but that is all.
