$\huge\bold{Speech On Discipline}$

Respected Principal, Respected Teachers and My Dear Friends!

First of all, I would like to welcome all of you to the annual day of our school. Every year we celebrate this day with a lot of enthusiasm and fervor. While at one side, students are excited to get promoted to the next class, there is also a regret of leaving the memories of the previous class.

It’s a great pleasure to be given this opportunity to host the programme and deliver the speech. The topic that I chose this year is ‘Discipline’.

Even though, we all are aware of the dictionary meaning of this term, but how many of us actually follow our inner instinct?

Discipline means ‘doing the things in the moral and ethical manner’. School is the second place after our home, where we learn discipline. Discipline is basically the suppression of base desires and is often understood to be similar to self – restraint and control. Disciplined person determines the best course of action irrespective of one’s wishes. Honest behavior is another form of discipline; it can be described as when one’s values and aims are aligned with each other.

School discipline has a very important role to play in an individual’s life. It is a necessary set of actions adopted by a teacher towards a student or group of students, if the ongoing educational activity has been disrupted due to the student’s behavior or if the student breaks any particular rule created by the school authority. Discipline basically guides the children’s behavior, sets limits and ultimately helps them learn to care for themselves and others.

Discipline can come in several forms. School systems make rules and regulations and if any student breaks these rules, they are subject to punishment; which ultimately is aimed to teach discipline to the student. The school rules may include defining the expected clothing standards, social conduct, timekeeping and work ethic.

While discipline is necessary to condition the students; teachers should be mindful not to beat students to the extent that they get badly hurt. It is also called corporal punishment. Several reports indicate that some teachers get violent in the name of discipline harming students physically and mentally. Thus, the focus of discipline is now shifting and substitute approaches are evolving due to all these incidents.

Many schools now-a-days focuses on ‘Positive Discipline’; it’s a discipline model that emphasizes on the positive aspects of behavior, found on the concept that there are no bad students, just bad and good behaviors. Accordingly, you can reinforce the good behaviors through counseling and examples without hurting the child. People promoting positive disciplines don’t ignore the problems rather tackle the problem peacefully.

Discipline is also required in our professional life and thus it is all the more important. Like a company cannot be successful without a proper strategy, we also can’t succeed without certain rules and discipline in our life. Inculcating good habits like waking up early, doing regular exercise, eating healthy food, not indulging into bad habits like smoking, drinking, etc would keep us healthy and fit.

Thus, it is important that we remain disciplined in every aspect of our life.

Thank you!
