Behaviour Policy

At Wybourn Community Primary School, we want every member of our school community to know that they are cared for, respected and treated fairly.  We ensure we invest time in every child, as an individual; supporting them to build strong, positive relationships, in which they value themselves, each other and the wider community.

 

We follow a trauma informed approach, recognising that there are reasons behind behaviours children are showing. To this end, our school is committed to educational practices, which Protect, Relate, Regulate and Reflect.  We also draw on research in neuroscience, psychology and adverse childhood experiences from Dr Nadine Burke Harris, Paul Dix and others. 

 

 

Aims of the Policy

  • To create a positive culture of behaviour – ‘Today, tomorrow and for life’.

  • To develop individuals who are respectful, empathetic and reflective.

  • To create a culture of positive relationships which is demonstrated in all areas of the school community.

  • To ensure that all members of the school community are treated fairly and show mutual respect to one another; through promoting high expectations of all students.

  • To address times of disregulation with a supportive, restorative approach, enabling all children to repair lost trust.

  • To support all children to develop their Personal, Health, Social and Emotional skills, including their understanding of their own and others’ emotions.

  • To support the wellbeing of every member of the school community to ensure healthy minds throughout.

 

​​​​​​​Purpose of the Policy

 

To provide simple, practical procedures for our school community that:

  • Positively reinforce behavioural norms

  • Promote self-esteem and self-discipline

  • Teach appropriate behaviour through positive interactions and interventions

  • Provide a framework for celebrating success, de-escalating negative behaviours and repairing relationships after significant incidents
