Our Approach to Behaviour

At St Hild’s Church of England School, we believe in creating an environment where every pupil is encouraged to thrive academically and personally. Our Behaviour Policy, inspired by Christian values, promotes respect, responsibility, and a positive learning environment.

Key Principles of Our Behaviour Policy

We are committed to:

• Encouraging Positive Behaviour for Learning: Pupils are guided to be ready to learn, actively listen, and put in their best effort.
• Providing a Safe and Supportive Environment: We ensure a respectful environment where pupils feel valued and motivated to succeed.
• Partnering with Families: We collaborate with parents and carers to foster a supportive environment for each pupil’s growth.

Our Behaviour Standards

Our Behaviour Policy centres around values of respect, cooperation, and responsibility:

• Respect for Others: Pupils are encouraged to treat peers, staff, and the school environment with kindness and respect.
• Responsibility: Each pupil is taught to take responsibility for their actions, understanding the impact of their choices on others.
• Engagement in Learning: We promote active listening, participation, and a commitment to personal growth.

These expectations help pupils understand the importance of positive contributions within the school community.

Positive Reinforcement and Rewards

We believe in celebrating good behaviour and achievements through:

• Verbal and Written Praise: Teachers offer positive feedback to reinforce good behaviour.
• House Points and Recognitions: Pupils earn points for positive contributions, leading to awards and House Heroes recognitions.
• Special Roles and Privileges: Pupils may earn roles such as Prefect or House Captain for consistent exemplary behaviour.

Managing Behaviour Challenges

Our approach to managing behaviour challenges is both supportive and restorative:

• Verbal Warnings and Call Backs: Initial redirection and reflective discussions are used to help pupils reconsider their choices.
• Internal Reflection: For persistent behaviour issues, pupils may spend time in a reflective space to encourage self-regulation.
• Targeted Support Plans: For pupils requiring additional support, personalised plans are created in partnership with staff and families.

Special Support for Pupils with Additional Needs

We are dedicated to providing an inclusive environment where all pupils feel supported:

• Individualised Support Plans: Tailored strategies are in place for pupils with additional needs.
• External Partnerships: We work with outside agencies, such as counselling services, to ensure comprehensive support.
• Consistent Communication: Parents and carers are kept informed and involved in supporting their child’s progress.
