The Dignity in Schools Campaign (DSC) Model Code Comparison Tool presents communities with recommended language for alternatives to school pushout and zero-tolerance discipline practices. It highlights questions you can answer about your own local codes of conduct and offers suggested guidance from considering alternatives and developing a strategy to implement them. You should use the tool in combination with DSC’s full Model Code on Education and Dignity available here.
