Behaviour

The link to our Behaviour Policy can be found here

This School is a calm and purposeful working environment, and the playgrounds must be places where the children can enjoy playing sensibly together. Each member of the School, irrespective of gender, culture, social or background, should be free from discrimination of any kind. The school’s Behaviour Policy clearly sets out the expectations in the Lower and Upper Juniors, together with the rewards and sanctions that are in place.

Staff will act in accordance with the school policy for managing behaviour. All forms of corporal punishment are forbidden.

Our Moral Compass helps to guide our pupil’s behaviour as well as guiding their personal growth and development. Our Moral Compass characteristics are integrity, generosity, res and kindness. These values are discussed and modelled daily.

Outside the Classroom

• Outside the classroom, we expect children to:

• Walk quietly and sensibly around school, holding doors open for each other and adults

• Greet teachers and visitors in a polite and courteous manner

• Respect the right of other children to play without interference

• Resolve differences of opinion without resorting to aggression

• Line up quickly and quietly at all times

• Respect other teachers and supervisors, in the playground, at lunch, in clubs and during ‘Prep’ and tea

• Remain supervised and move around the campus only when accompanied by an adult

• Wait for their parents in the agreed place at the end of the school day

• Only leave school if accompanied by an adult, unless other arrangements have been authorised by the Headmaster for Year 6 children.

Behaviour other than this is unacceptable
