Behaviour

Principles

 

  • The Behaviour Policy is designed to promote good behaviour, self-discipline and respect

  • Good behaviour allows all students to learn; poor behaviour disrupts the perpetrator’s as well as others’ learning

  • Effective learning thrives on positive relationships

  • Restorative approaches are used promptly by all staff in order to encourage reflection and minimise escalation and recurrence

  • The expectations of good behaviour are underpinned by respect

  • Good behaviour is promoted by clear rules that are communicated, understood and upheld by everyone

  • Rewards and sanctions are consistently applied by all staff

 

Practice

How the Behaviour Policy works in practice is detailed in the following places:

 

  • Student Planner

  • Staff Handbook (including recording on SIMS)

 

The Policy is divided into four parts:

 

  1. Code of Conduct

  2. Rules for behaving outside of the classroom

  3. Rules for learning in the classroom

  4. Rewards & sanctions

 

The exclusion procedure is included within the Behaviour Policy and Bishop Luffa School follow the Department of Education's Guidance on Exclusions.
