School Discipline

All staff members hope to work with parents and guardians to solve behavioural problems in a constructive atmosphere. The issue of Bullying is taken seriously. The school seeks to create a listening culture where incidents are swiftly dealt with and where children may observe justice and fairness and a right use of power.
Children are praised whenever possible and examples of caring and good behaviour are rewarded and encouraged. Sanctions such as deprivation of privileges may be used for some offences. Corporal punishment will not be administered under any circumstances as stated in Education (No. 2) Act 1986.

Parents are notified of the school rules through the prospectus, circulars and newsletters, meetings for new entrants and the like. The children have the rules drawn to their attention in class and during plenary gatherings and discussions. Parents and pupils help to set the rules. Parents will be asked to sign a Home and School Agreement that stresses school and home are involved in partnership. The school behaviour and discipline policy is sent out to parents and further copies are available from the office. Parents will be consulted on its content on an annual basis.
