The student body met last week to discuss their concerns about a growing list of governance issues around Peter O'Neill and his government.
The students have called on Mr O'Neill to step aside to face corruption allegations, and as a consequence decided to boycott classes.
The Student Representative Council this morning issued a notice to inform the entire student body that it is suspending classes for this week.
