That bullshit piece of paper seemingly everyone signs is, in my opinion, the dumbest thing there is. As a child you are effectively forced to sign said document, and as a minor you really can’t enter into binding agreements anyway. Both of which do not improve the ‘legality’ of those documents.
I was fairly well behaved, I’d say, but I never felt any sort of reason to specifically follow that guide, especially as it was forced on us. I expect a lot of other more self-aware children feel similar when still in school.
Overall it’s just a symptom of the proper resources missing.
It's not a legal contract. A business has no obligation to allow you on the premises so a code of conduct is expected, there's an unwritten one for every business you go into. Schools just take time to explain theirs.
