The school behaviour policy is therefore designed to support the way in which all members of the school can live and work together in a supportive way. It aims to promote an environment where everyone feels happy, safe and secure.
We ensure that the teaching and learning opportunities are planned to meet the needs of all of the pupils.
We ensure that appropriate provision is made for pupils who may be vulnerable. This includes ensuring that the needs of socially disadvantaged pupils are adequately assessed and addressed.
We also recognise that not all pupils who are socially disadvantaged are registered or qualify for free school meals. We reserve the right to allocate Pupil Premium funding to support any individual or group of pupils the school has legitimately identified as having need.
Since September 2013 the government has provided an annual P.E and Schools Sport Premium. This money must be used to provide additional and sustainable improvement to the quality of P.E and sport the school offers.
The vision is for a measurable and sustained improvement in school PE and Sport, underpinned by high-quality teaching that increases participation levels in physical activity and leads to healthier pupils who are more engaged across the whole curriculum. This will be our legacy to the London 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games.
In our school, we aim to offer excellence and choice to all our children, whatever their ability or needs. We have high expectations of all our children.
We aim to achieve this through the removal of barriers to learning and participation.
We want all of our children to feel that they are a valued part of our school community.
Our governing body consists of a group of enthusiastic and committed people who volunteer to work in partnership with the school staff to shape the future of the school, to decide the key issues that will help staff to raise standards and to determine how the school will best spend its money to achieve these aims.
As part of the broad curriculum offered to our children, we often have to fund certain activities outside the provision of the LEA. The 1988 Education Reform Act does not allow us to charge for such activities. We, therefore, ask parents for occasional voluntary contributions towards such funding.
The 1988 Education Reform Act states that: "There is no obligation to contribute and no pupil would be omitted from the activity because his/her parents were unwilling to contribute".
To be happy, friendly safe and enjoy life at school.
To become independent, responsible members of the school community.
During lessons pay attention, concentrate, try their hardest at work and make good progress.
To behave well at all times and treat other people with courtesy, kindness and consideration.
To respect the environment in which they live and work and the belongings of others.
