Good behaviour is central to all we do in this school. High standards of behaviour will be expected and promoted at all times in lessons and throughout every aspect of the school’s life. All members of staff will set high standards and learners will be given clear guidance on what is expected of them. The school rules will be learnt and followed by all and the Reward and Sanctions Policy will be used to underpin and reinforce good behaviour. We will work in partnership with parents to ensure that the school’s values become central to the lives of learners. Home and School Agreements will promote this policy

It is a primary aim of our school that every member of the school community feels valued and respected, and that each person is treated fairly and well. We are a caring community, whose values are built on mutual trust and respect for all. The school behaviour policy is therefore designed to support the way in which all members of the school can live and work together in a supportive way.

It aims to create an ethos of good behaviour in school where everyone feels happy, safe and secure and ensure that all are treated fairly, shown respect and to promote good relationships. It aims to help children lead disciplined lives and to understand that good citizenship is based upon good behaviour. It builds a school community which values kindness, care, good humour, good temper, obedience and empathy for others. Finally we wish to use good behaviour to promote community cohesion.

The school rewards good behaviour, as it believes that this will develop an ethos of kindness and co-operation. The school has a number of school rules, but the primary aim of the behaviour policy is not a system to enforce rules. It is a means of promoting good relationships, so that people can work together with the common purpose of helping everyone to learn. This policy supports the school community in aiming to allow everyone to work together in an effective and considerate way.
