School Rules Our school has a code of conduct that we encourage and expect all pupils to adhere to. All staff members are expected to set a good example to pupils and the following rules have been devised in consultation with the pupils to ensure a safe and happy school for all. I must not hurt anyone in school I must not hurt or endanger myself I must always be polite I must always look after my school I must always look after the things that I bring to school I must always work hard and aim to be the very best that I can be in all things. These rules form part of the policy for behaviour and are considered to be essential for the smooth and effective running of the school ensuring that pupils can learn and teachers can teach. A copy – of the behaviour policy is available from the Headteacher and contains a balance of rewards and sanctions. Most pupils respond to praise and rewards and thrive in a supportive atmosphere. If poor or unacceptable behaviour continues then parents are contacted to arrange a meeting with the class teacher. The Headteacher or Deputy may support in order to work together to rectify the situation through creating a joint programme for improvement. The ultimate sanction available for unacceptable, persistent misbehaviour is exclusion from school, either for a fixed period or permanently. In these cases the Headteacher will work with the Governors to seek advice from the LA and follow their guidelines and procedures. Attendance All pupils are required to attend school to ensure progress can be monitored and built upon. Our school target is for attendance to be at least 95%. Even short periods of absence can hinder continuity of education. Pupils should only miss lessons for emergency medical appointments, ill health, extreme family circumstances such as bereavement or if a holiday form has been completed and absence authorised by school. There is now a no leave of absence code as set by DfE in the
