ATTENTION ALL PARENTS, GUARDIANS & STUDENTS || The Guyana Digital School has taken note of a few instances of inappropriate behaviour by some students during our live classes. All sessions are recorded and moderators are present in every class and thus have a record of every account that engages in such behaviour. Students who continue to behave in an unbecoming manner will not be permitted to participate in future live classes. Moreover, disrespect towards teachers and fellow students will not be tolerated.

Every teacher deserves to feel safe at work. Minister of Education, the Honourable Sonia Parag, has made clear that any student who hits or attempts to hit a teacher will be expelled.
