Behaviour

At Bungay Primary School, we are committed to creating an environment where exemplary behaviour is expected and is at the heart of productive learning. Everyone is expected to maintain the highest standards of personal conduct, to accept responsibility for their behaviour choices and to encourage others to do the same.

We encourage our learners to be ambitious for themselves and for others, as we challenge and support them in questioning the world and in finding solutions.

We want our learners to be ready to learn, to be respectful of each other and to feel safe. Our Behaviour Policy echoes our core values with a heavy emphasis on respectful behaviour choices.

Rights Respecting Behaviour

All staff, children, governors and parents recognise that we have the right to learn in an orderly community in which effective learning can take place. As part of our commitment to this right, we have reviewed our behaviour policy and simplified our school rules to enable all our children to embrace them, whether they are three years or eleven years of age. Our three key rules are:

'READY, RESPECTFUL & SAFE'  

We have discussed with our children what these words mean, how they look in practice and how they can use these words to help them in school and what their behaviour may look like when they are ready, respectful and safe. This is what they think:

· We are READY to learn – we arrive at school on time, we have our equipment ready and we show that we are listening

· We are RESPECTFUL – we listen when others speak and we respect the property of our friends and the school.

· We are SAFE – we move around school in a safe manner, we follow instructions to keep ourselves safe on school trips, we use equipment

 safely and we stay safe online. We have kind hands and feet.
