Integrity is doing the right thing when nobody’s looking. The school, through its different policy, will inculcate academic integrity among its students. Students guideline for implementing academic integrity: Students are expected to work individually, for assessment; whenever they collaborate with their peers, they should not copy each other’s works. Students should acknowledge any work which is not theirs, and if they are using it in their classwork, it should be acknowledged through a proper referencing style.
