Discipline
Q. What sort of discipline does the school have?
A. The school has a positive behaviour policy.
Our aim is to have a happy and caring school which enables children to work to the best of their ability. In order to achieve this we expect the children to conform to a good standard of behaviour.
There are no formal school rules but we involve the children in discussions leading to a code of reasonable behaviour and drawing up of privileges, rewards and jobs of responsibility.
We use the withdrawal of privileges and jobs of responsibility only very occasionally as sanctions in the case of negative, unco-operative or dangerous behaviour. In such cases the parents are always informed and together we discuss possible solutions. Although the Governing Body has the right to suspend a child, this would only be taken up in the most extreme circumstances.
