Behaviour
Why do we need a Respectful Relationships and Behaviour Policy?
The law requires schools to have a written behaviour and attendance policy. Ofsted reports that schools are most effective where the behaviour policy is applied consistently. Our Respectful Relationships and Behaviour Policy and Attendance Policy helps us to create a caring, stimulating and secure environment in which staff and students can work and engage safely and to encourage the involvement of Parents/Carers in the development of their child.
In this policy there is reference to suspension, managed moves and exclusions. These are essential behaviour management tools for headteachers and can be used to establish high standards of behaviour in schools and maintain the safety of school communities. The school follows the DfE Guidance on Suspension and Exclusions. This can be found here: Suspension and permanent exclusion guidance (publishing.service.gov.uk)
