Behaviour

At St Peter’s CofE, we believe that positive behaviour creates a safe, respectful, and encouraging learning environment.

We are committed to:

Encouraging Positive Behaviour: We support our pupils to be resilient, respectful, and responsible.
Creating a Safe Environment: We aim to provide a learning environment free from disruption, bullying, or intimidation.
Working in Partnership with Families: We work closely with parents and carers to ensure consistent support for positive behaviour.

Our Behaviour Policy is built on our school values:

These values are reinforced through character habits like resilience, empathy, self-awareness, positivity, communication and teamwork.

Positive behaviour is recognised and celebrated:

Praise and Recognition: Staff members use positive feedback and acknowledge good behaviour.
Classroom Dojos: Points awarded for positive behaviour, contributing to a safe and encouraging classroom.
Recognition Assemblies: Weekly assemblies to celebrate achievements and recognise pupils’ efforts.

We address behaviour challenges with a restorative approach, encouraging pupils to understand and take responsibility for their actions:

Behaviour Footsteps: A stepped approach for managing behaviour, from verbal reminders to reflection time, and parental involvement if needed.
Restorative Conversations: Discussions to help pupils understand the impact of their actions and how to improve.
Individual Support Plans: Tailored support is available for pupils who need additional guidance.

Our approach to behaviour supports the diverse needs of our pupils:

Individualised Support: We adjust our approach to meet the unique needs of each child, in partnership with parents and support services.
External Support: We work with educational psychologists, behaviour specialists and other professionals as needed.
Inclusive Environment: Our restorative practices aim to make every pupil feel valued and supported.
