Behaviour Management

We are a PB4L (Positive Behaviour for Learning) School. We believe that the children and staff have the right to expect high standards of behaviour in order to create a positive and caring environment which encourages learning, fair play and citizenship.
 
The school has developed a positive structured approach to discipline, both in the classroom and in the playground.  The children will know the limits set and expected, and the consequences of disregarding rules.
 
However, both inside and outside of the classroom, the emphasis will be on the positive, with children recognised appropriately and systematically for good behaviour.
Bicycles

The police recommend that no child under the age of ten should cycle to school unless accompanied by an adult.
  • Students cycling to and from school are expected to observe the road rules – hand signals, looking behind, mounting/dismounting, keeping well left, etc.
  • Each student must wear a Standards-approved cycle safety helmet and have a roadworthy bicycle.
  • Students may not "double" other students to school, and may not cycle in the school grounds during school hours, unless it is an organised school event.
  • Students must place their cycles in the cycle stands.

​Cycles which must be locked are to be put in the cycle shed.
Book Club

Twice a term, children have the opportunity to purchase paper-back books at a reasonable price.  Catalogue forms are sent home.  No pressure is placed on any child to purchase from these catalogues.
