Behaviour and Motivation Policy

The Governing Body believes that in order to enable teaching and learning to take place, desired behaviour in all aspects of school life is necessary. It seeks to create an inclusive caring, learning environment in the school by:

• promoting desired behaviour and discipline
• promoting self-esteem, self-discipline, proper regard for authority and positive relationships based on mutual respect
• ensuring equality and fairness of treatment for all
• encouraging consistency of response to both positive and negative behaviour
• promoting early intervention
• providing a safe environment free from disruption, violence, bullying and any form of harassment
• encouraging a positive relationship with parents and carers to develop a shared approach which involves them in the implementation of the school’s policy and associated procedures
• promoting a culture of praise and encouragement in which all children can achieve
