1. ACADEMIC INTEGRITY POLICY

The European Azerbaijan School (EAS), values honesty and academic integrity. We encourage all  students to conduct themselves in a responsible way. In this spirit, we expect all students to refrain  from misconduct. EAS believes that instruction in academic and personal honesty is a fundamental  part of a student’s education. Honesty and integrity are character traits that are expected from every  student. Academic dishonesty is generally defined as cheating or creating a false impression of a  student’s performance. 

At the beginning of every academic year we organize meetings for students and parents in our three  different programmes, explaining how important academic integrity is in our school. We take this  opportunity to share with parents our policy and review with them the practice and the vital support  they can give to us and to our students. 

According to the International Baccalaureate, academic integrity must be seen as a set of values  and skills that promote personal integrity and good practice in teaching, learning and assessment.  All students at EAS are expected to strive to develop attributes of the IB Learner Profile. Therefore,  the IB Learner Profile is the cornerstone of the school’s academic honesty policy.

The school’s admissions policy outlines  how the school conducts its admissions on a fair and non- discriminatory basis, adhering  to the admissions’ criteria.
