 The approach to managing behaviour at Heath Fields Primary School

When a child displays behaviour that is not in line with the school's expectation then the following steps to be followed.

Step one – A verbal warning is given to the child with a reminder around behaviour expectations.

Step two – Verbal warning repeated with an explanation of the consequence if the child does not meet behaviour expectations.

Step three – Child's name recorded, and 5 minutes free time (break) is lost

Step four – 15 minutes of free time lost.

Step five - Child sent to another class via a senior leader. message sent home informing parents.

If incidents happen during the afternoon, then the sanction is carried over to the next day. Children will be given the opportunity, during the afternoon to meet the teacher’s expectations and so have any sanctions removed for the following day.

 At Heath Fields Primary School we are all expected to be...

CALM I try to do my best and understand I don’t always get it right first time. I don’t react to the words or actions of others and tell an adult straight away. I am aware of others and considerate towards them when I work or play. I line up with my class in a quiet and calm way.	KIND I share learning resources and play equipment with others. I look after the school by keeping it tidy and pick up coats, bags and books off the floor. I will treat others in the way I expect to be treated. I will work as part of a team, helping the other members of my team
POLITE I say please, thank you and excuse me. I listen carefully in class, assembly and to all adults. I hold the door open for others. I greet visitors to school and show appreciation to guests in class or assembly.	RESPECTFUL I follow the instructions given to me by any adult in school. I will try to the best of my ability. I wear the correct uniform and bring the right equipment to school like P.E. kit. I know what my reading, writing and maths targets are. I complete my homework and return it on time. I read at home and get an adult to sign my reading record.
SAFE I follow the school and class rules. I move around the school and playground with care, being aware of others. I eat my lunch carefully, putting my lunch things away when I have finished. I will tell an adult in school if I am worried or concerned about anything
