There are two types of suspension - 1-5 day (new window) 57k 
and 6-20 day (new window) 58k .
The principal can suspend a student with a recommendation to exclude as per grounds outlined for suspension, but the student's disobedience, misconduct or any other conduct must be so serious that suspension of the student is inadequate to deal with the behaviour.
Additionally, the principal can suspend a student with a recommendation to exclude for the student's contravention of a behaviour improvement condition.
The principal can cancel the enrolment of a post compulsory age student if the student displays persistent refusal to participate in the program of instruction.
A Behaviour Improvement Condition (new window) 64k is an option to be used only when the student 's behaviour warrants grounds for exclusion ie: if the student 's disobedience, misconduct or other conduct is so serious that suspension of the student from the school or schools is inadequate to deal with the behaviour.
