Behaviour for Learning

The school believes in rewarding good behaviour and attitudes to learning, whilst also providing consequences for poor learning choices to encourage good learning behaviours.

We have produced a simple set of expectations, which are used in every classroom to reward and reinforce positive choices and to ensure that any disruption is challenged fairly but swiftly so lessons progress well.

Students that have shown hard work, positive choices and have a good attendance record are rewarded with reward points. Students that have accumulated enough points have the opportunity to attend a Reward Event at the end of each half-term.
