Student Suspension Meetings

Is your board ready to hold a student suspension meeting? 

A suspension is the formal removal of a student from school until the board meets to decide the outcome.

This session provides practical guidance on running a fair process while keeping the student’s needs at the centre.

We explore:

• The legislative requirements that underpin the suspension process
• Preparing for and running a suspension meeting
• Setting appropriate conditions
• What needs to happen after a meeting, and what can happen if your decision is challenged
• Available support and next steps.
