Rebooting Behaviour: What is the vision? All members of the school community are able to flourish in a safe environment Lessons are free from disruption and no learning time is wasted Children are consistently well taught and experience success. This means they will be motivated to work hard and to show resilience to overcome barriers Kindness and gratitude are the norm in all interactions All adults have equal authority and consistently lead behaviour in and out of classrooms Reasonable adjustments are made to provision for children with specific needs Children and adults have a sense of pride in the school environment
One off low level behaviours For example: Not listening to the teacher, teaching assistant or other member of staff. Distracting other pupils Interrupting others The member of staff will choose from this toolkit: Use non-verbal cues to avoid disruption to flow Express private, firm disproval Allow take up time for the child to process instructions Keep the child back briefly at morning or lunch playtime to reset expectations
Repeated low level behaviours The member of staff will choose from this toolkit: Give a timeout in the classroom Give a closed choice ( You can either get on with your work now or finish it during playtime ) Reset expectations in front of the phase leader Persistent low level behaviours The member of staff will choose from this toolkit: Instruct the pupil to spend a period of timeout outside of the classroom Contact parents, supported by the phase leader A senior leader will choose from this toolkit: Place the child on report for one week, which will involve daily check ins with a member of the school s leadership team Set an internal exclusion if this is deemed appropriate
Serious incidents For example: spitting, swearing, insulting others, defiance, violence, bullying behaviour, theft. The member of staff will: Ensure that everyone is safe and send for one or more school leaders Senior leaders will: Intervene and talk to the pupil about what has happened Call the child s parents to discuss what happened Place the child on report for 2 weeks, which will involve daily check ins with a member of the school s leadership team Senior leaders might: Set an internal exclusion Issue a fixed term or permanent exclusion if appropriate

Year 4 times table test The Multiplication Tables Check is only being rolled-out to schools in England. Children will sit the new times tables test either in June 2019 (if their school has volunteered to the trial) or in June 2020 meaning it will be mandatory for all children starting Year 4 in September 2019. Schools have a three-week window in the month of June to have their Year 4 children sit the test, but will be free to choose which day within that three-week period they choose to sit it. All state schools in England, including maintained schools, special schools, academies and free schools will be required to enter their children for the Multiplication Tables Check .
