Ethos, Culture and Relationships

To learn effectively, it is important that all children feel happy and secure in school.  To this end we expect the children to show consideration and respect to their fellow pupils, staff and visitors to the school, as well as to school property.  Good behaviour is encouraged through positive recognition, praise and incentives.

The children are involved annually in drawing up class charters, based on the school expectations of, ready, respectful, safe, and agreeing the natural consequences when these rules are broken.  Parents will be notified and involved if any serious difficulties in behaviour arise, and their co-operation will be sought in the early stages. A partnership approach involving parents and school is vital in all aspects of behaviour and attendance, and the school is very appreciative of our excellent parental support.
