The Bible School is a ministry of excellence, which aims to establish Christian standards. As such, we ask students to flow in or with the same standards of excellence. The student therefore must agree to the following:
I understand the purpose of the School of Timothy’s and I am prepared to engage in serious study and application of GOD’S WORD in my life. I understand the tuition requirements and the responsibilities involved.
I have read the Prospectus and understand all the policies and rules therein. I make a commitment to the CFCBS Program and agree to abide by these rules and regulations. I will be an example of having good Christian character and conduct at all times. I understand that studying through CFCBS is a privilege and that the Administration has the right to require withdrawal of a student at any time, to safeguard the ideals of discipleship or the moral atmosphere.

3. CODE OF DISCIPLINE
DISCIPLINE OF STUDENTS
The Dean and/or the Pastor of the local church will, in a Scriptural manner, handle any severe disciplinary problems that may arise. Any student found to be acting in an unworthy manner will be disciplined accordingly, even to the extent of being expelled.

o Academic Honesty
All students must be honest and forthright in their academic studies. To falsify the results of one’s research, to cheat on an assignment, or to allow or assist another to commit these acts corrupts the educational process.
Students are expected to do their own work and neither give nor receive unauthorized assistance.

o Plagiarism
Plagiarism is the inclusion of someone else’s words, ideas, or data as one’s own. When a student submits academic work that includes another’s words, ideas, or data, whether published or unpublished, the source of that information must be acknowledged with complete and accurate references.

o Cheating
Cheating is an act or an attempted act of deception by which a student seeks to misrepresent that he or she has mastered information that has not been mastered.

o Academic Misconduct
Academic misconduct is any other act that impugns or disrupts the
educational process.

o Student Organizations
No student organization that hosts, organizes, conducts or participates in an on-campus function or event sponsored or sanctioned by CFCBS shall serve alcohol or permit the use and consumption.

o Disruptive Conduct
A student shall not impair, interfere with, or obstruct the orderly conduct, process, or function of CFCBS or any of its students, faculty members, officials or guests.

o Drug Policy
The CFCBS prohibits the possession, use, consumption, manufacture, sale or distribution of drugs and drug paraphernalia. Any violations of this drug policy may be reported to all appropriate law enforcement authorities.

o False Information
A student shall not provide false or misleading information.

o Misuse of CFCBS Materials, Services or Property
A student shall not misuse any CFCBS material, service or property.

o Theft
Theft is defined as taking or possessing the property of another without right or permission. Students shall respect the property of the CFCIBS, its guests and all members of the CFCBS community.

o Mobile Phones
Must be turned off during the lessons and not turned onto silent.

o Chewing gum, eating and drinking
Is not permitted within the building. Please help us protect the chairs and the floor from any possible damage that may occur.

o Class Attendance
Commitment to the training program is essential. Jesus Christ
commissioned the church to make disciples. Students who are part of the training courses are certainly included in this calling.
Full attendance is expected in all classes. An overall (minimum) attendance of 90% is expected for students to maximize the benefit of the class lectures and therefore be able to qualify for the awards. Absenteeism, in writing, or a doctor’s letter must be directed to the Dean.
Lectures will start at scheduled times and therefore students are promptly required to be seated and ready for the lectures.

o Assignments & Tests
All assignments are of a practical nature – including written work, practical experience and accomplishment. Students should discipline themselves regarding the punctuality of completing assignments (workbooks, reports and tasks) in order to enjoy the full benefits of the course.

o Practical tasks
The nature of Christian Family Church Bible School is to teach the Word and gain practical experience of teaching it. Therefore, students must be willing to perform various practical tasks as decided by the Dean of the Bible School. All tasks will be in line with current courses and application will be relevant at all times.

o Dean’s hour
Roughly, one lesson per month is set aside for the Dean’s hour. These lessons either take place in the different classes or the students will come t ogether in the sanctuary. This is compulsory and students are to sit in their assigned seats.

o Want to quit school?
If a student is contemplating quitting school before graduation, it is very important to find someone to talk to about it. Please make an appointment with the Dean or with a teacher! Even though the situation may seem hopeless in your eyes, it is remarkable as to how God can enlighten things when we seek His help.
It is important for the Dean to know if such a situation has arisen. Speak to him! The Bible School needs to know exactly when studies have ended.
