Behaviour

At Fazakerley Primary School our behaviour management policy is based around five key pillars which are:

1. Consistent, calm adult behaviours
2. First attention to best conduct
3. Relentless routines
4. Scripting difficult conversations
5. Restorative follow up

We believe that positive behaviour is an essential condition for effective learning and teaching. We also believe that pupils and staff have the right to learn and teach in an environment which is safe, friendly and fair.

Our school has defined a very clear code of conduct, which is based on respect for each individual in our community and their individual needs. Positive behaviour must be carefully developed and supported. Appropriate high self-esteem promotes good behaviour, effective learning and positive relationships. Put simply, we believe pupils learn best when they feel safe and happy in school.

We believe the best results, in terms of promoting positive behaviour, arise from emphasising potential, rewarding success and giving praise for effort and achievement. We also know it is important to strike a balance between recognising positive behaviour and having appropriate consequences which are seen by all to be fair and just and applied consistently when standards are not maintained. Through positive role-modelling, by adults who care for them in school and through well-developed planned and stimulating learning opportunities, we believe that children can accept learning challenges and develop self-discipline. It is the responsibility of parents/carers and carers to work with the school in helping to foster positive attitudes and behaviour.

We place a large emphasis on celebrating the good choices our children make and we believe that each and every child can and should be celebrated for this. We have a number of ways in which we recognise good behaviour, these include:
1. TEAM Code of Conduct Half Term Year Group Award
2. TEAM Super work certificate
3. Senior Leadership Team (SLT) Super Work Postcard Visits
4. Dojo prizes
5. Positive phone calls home / Positive Dojo messages home
