Sharmans Cross Junior School is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and
expects all adults to share this commitment
Incentives to promote positive behaviour
In order to promote and reinforce our School and Class Rules we feel it is important
to adopt a system, which recognises all forms of social and academic achievement,
and then communicates this 'good news' to children and parents.
All Support and Teaching staff will use the same approach to establish and maintain
consistency. All adults will:
- Trust, respect, encourage, and listen to every child.
- Ensure the child knows that it is the behaviour that it is disliked and not
him/her.
Warm, caring relationships and a happy, stimulating environment are the ideal
incentives. Achievement of these will be our ultimate goal.
Our school has established a system to celebrate the success of those pupils who
contribute to the achievement of their personal goals.
Achievements may be in the areas of :
- Academic success
-
Appropriate behaviour choices
- Achieving school targets
-
Good attendance
- Improved results
-
Good citizenship
- Honest effort
Celebration Assembly
All the above are celebrated and acknowledged in the Celebration Assembly.
Entries on the ‘Star of the Week sheet’ should directly refer to one of the above.
Year groups are responsible for organising the completion of the sheets by
Thursday in order for the merit sheets to be printed by office staff. The sheet
is then handed to the Head ready for Friday’s assembly. A letter will also be sent
home informing parents of the child’s achievement. Children will also be
nominated for Star of the Term and Star of the Year where parents are invited
in to celebrate in their child’s achievements.
Year group LSA is responsible for changing ‘Star of the Week’ display boards on a
weekly basis.
