Behaviour and Relationships
We believe students should be able to learn safely and happily at school and that school and home should co-operate to enable this to happen. We believe this is helped by having clear guidelines as to what is acceptable in lessons and at informal times such as break and what steps will be taken if children do not behave well. All classes follow the same set of school rules.
At Churchill School our expectations for each student is to:
- Follow instructions
- Do as you are asked by all members of staff
- Be polite and use good manners
- Always speak nicely to everyone
- Be honest, kind and helpful
- Be a good friend
- Be gentle and never hurt anyone
- Move safely and quietly around the school
- Take care of all property
- Concentrate on your work
- Do your best
When students are in Samuel Ward they will be expected to know the acrostic PERFORM:
P = Positively participate in all tasks
E = Encourage everyone with kindness and fairness
R = Respect each other and the environment at all times
F = Follow instructions immediately
O = On task always
R = Ready to learn with resilience and responsibility
M = Make the most of yourself, be trustworthy and honest
Rewards
All positive behaviour is recognised and we praise and reward students for good behaviour. We also acknowledge students efforts and achievements both within and outside of school.
Sanctions
At Churchill we accept that it is our responsibility to support students, who do not follow the School Rules, so that they can make better behaviour choices in the future. The available sanctions are used to promote and develop positive behaviour. All adults and students are expected to use the opportunities provided within the sanctions system to look to resolve the issues that have led to the inappropriate behaviour.
