Negative Behaviour Wherever possible support is put into place for pupils during the induction process to help them manage their own behaviour, however following incidents of negative behaviour additional support may be put in place.
Catch-Up Sessions After School Catch-Up sessions are designed to support the staff in maintaining good discipline in the Centre. They allow staff to challenge and issue consequences for inappropriate behaviour which prevents the learning of others. Pupils who misbehave around the centre and / or who are rude, defiant or insolent towards or disrespectful of staff and / or visitors will be asked to remain in the Centre after school to catch-up on any work they have missed during the day or for an appropriate intervention. Parents / carers are informed if the session is in excess of 15 minutes.
Exclusions The Head of Centre is the sole person in the centre who may exclude a pupil or, in his absence, the Deputy Head of Centre. All exclusions of 5 days may be subject to a review by the Management Board. It is therefore important that accurate and sufficient records of behaviour or actions that have led to an exclusion are available. [Exclusions beyond five days can be invoked only where alternative provision for the pupil is in place from the sixth day of exclusion. Exclusions between 6 and 15 days may also be subject to review by the Management Board. Any exclusion beyond 15 days MUST, in law, be considered by the Management Board. An excluded pupil should not be prevented from sitting a public examination or mock examination. An excluded pupil is expected to complete work at home. Class teachers are asked to set work which will be sent home. When it is returned it will be marked by the teacher and further work will be sent home. Pupils and their parents may be invited to a post exclusion meeting. This could be with their Form Tutor/ Pastoral Manager / Head of Centre / Deputy Head of Centre / Assistant Head or any combination. This meeting is vital and marks the pupil’s reintegration into the centre. It maybe that an additional programme is put in place following an exclusion to support the pupil’s reintegration back into the Centre. Every situation and every pupil is unique and the Head of Centre reserves the right to exercise professional judgement in the light of investigation by him and other staff.
Isolation Isolation is an alternative to exclusion. Isolation means a pupil will work on their own supported by a member of staff.
Restorative Practice If an incident of negative behaviour has resulted in a pupil, member of staff or any other person being injured or assaulted in any way then a Restorative Meeting will take place prior to the pupil reintegrating back into lessons.
