Successful discipline is a partnership between school, the child and home.  We aim to maintain an ordered, happy and safe environment in which there are high standards of behaviour and self discipline.  These are based upon mutual respect, understanding and an awareness of the needs of others.

 Good discipline is achieved, wherever possible, by the positive reinforcement and recognition of both good behaviour and high standards of personal discipline.

 Where sanctions or withdrawal of privileges are deemed necessary they will be administered fairly and firmly and the reason for them fully explained.

In cases of serious or prolonged misconduct parents will be informed at an early stage so that they are able to play a full part in finding solutions to the problems and monitoring their progress.  Parents will also be informed where good behaviour warrants special praise.

 A detailed policy on behaviour and discipline is available in school for parents who wish to see it.
