School Standards
and Policies
Brennan Work requires a serious commitment on the
part of the student to loving self-responsibility. Students
of the School are asked to conduct their personal lives in
and out of class with a high degree of personal integrity.
Healership requires adherence to the highest standards
of personal excellence. It is essential to live what we
profess.
To maintain Love, Truth and Wisdom throughout the
program, a code of ethics is set not only for Teachers,
but also for students.
Please read the following Standards and Policies
carefully. It is important that you fully understand the
high standards of the School and the ethical behavior
that will be required of you as a healer.
SCHOOL STANDARDS
Dismissal or Suspension from School
The School reserves the absolute right to dismiss or
suspend any student at its sole discretion when such
action is deemed to be in the best interests of the School
or its students, or in any one of the following situations:
1. The student fails to adhere to any school policy.
2. The student engages in physical violence directed
towards another person.
3. The student’s physical, mental or emotional health is
such that the School—in carrying out its responsibility
to other students, members of the faculty and staff,
or the public to be served by the students upon
completion of the Program—determines that the
student should be dismissed or suspended for a
period of time selected by the School.
4. Such action is deemed by the School to be in the
best interests of the School and its students.
If a student is suspended, the School will set forth
in writing the conditions of his/her return, as well as
the length of the suspension. The student must provide
documentation that all conditions have been fulfilled
prior to being allowed to return to school.
If a student is dismissed, he/she may reapply for
admission. Readmission will be considered if the student
is able to demonstrate compliance with the School’s
recommendations set forth when dismissal or suspension
occurred.
Tuition refunds will be based on the refund policy set
forth in the Enrollment Agreement.
The Spectrum of Confidentiality
There is a wide spectrum of confidential/not confidential
behavior. At the least confidential end of the spectrum is
gossip, saying anything about anyone at any time. At the
most confidential end is never talking about others but
speaking only about yourself and your own experience.
There are times when it is useful to discuss others.
It is useful and necessary for Teachers to discuss the
progress of their students with each other regularly,
and this discussion may include any aspect of the class
activity, including supervision groups. It will be useful
for you to discuss your client cases (with your client’s
permission) with your class Supervisor.
However, it is not usually necessary or constructive
to talk about people. What is valuable in conversations is
talking about your experience, not always telling stories
about others. It is important that we always look at our
own intention when we discuss others. Ask yourself:
“Why am I saying this about this person? Does my
talking about them contribute to their and my own
well-being?”
In class situations, as with clients, the more the
students (clients) and their actions are held to be
confidential, the more safety they have to fully express
