Alongside our academic curriculum, all children in school also have access to the Behaviour Curriculum. This has been designed to explicitly teach the core skills and values that we feel link to our school values.
These key skills are:
* Kindness, Self-Control, Good Judgement (linked to being safe and happy individuals)
* Perseverance, Seeking Help, Concentration (linked to being successful learners)
* Commitment, Tolerance, Empathy (linked to being responsible citizens)
The Behaviour Curriculum is designed to be a graded response with children having access to more elements as necessary. All children have access to the Zones of Regulation, Restorative Practice and the first instalments of the 9 key skills noted above. If children are shown to be needing additional support to engage with the school's Behaviour Curriculum, then they will also have access to Skills Cards.
For more information on each element of the Behaviour Curriculum, please use the menus below.

Restorative Practice is a term used to describe behaviours, interactions and approaches which help to build and maintain positive, healthy relationships, resolve difficulties and repair harm where there has been conflict. It is an internationally renowned practice and evidence has shown that outcomes for children and families are improved with restorative practice approaches. It aims to remove barriers, promote a sense of community and enable all participants to understand social responsibility and shared accountability.
Restorative practice can take place both formally and informally, depending on the need and severity of the situation, and is undertaken by trained staff. As of June, all staff in school will be trained in restorative practice approaches.
Effective restorative practice allows all participants to share their thoughts and feelings in a constructive manner, with a focus on building relationships and repairing harm. Many questions are asked and, often, the participants draw their own conclusions. The main three questions are:
What happened?
Who was affected?
How were they affected?
