Positive relationships and behaviour
The key principles of the policy are:
- Learners are consulted and contribute towards the Relationship and Behaviour policy
- Learners are confident and self-assured learners
- Learners have a positive attitude and are respectful to the school community
- Learners are proud of their school
- Learners are self-disciplined and incidents of low level behaviour are rare
- Learners understand how their education equips them with the behaviours and attitudes necessary to succeed in the next stage of education, training or employment
- To facilitate a sustained improvement in learner’s behaviour within targeted groups. Where behaviour is already excellent, this is maintained.
- Learners work hard to prevent all forms of bullying, including online and prejudice-based bullying
- Learners feel safe within school and are ready to learn
- Learners can manage behaviour effectively during unstructured play such as at lunch time.
Bank View is part of the Liverpool Hearts project. It remains a whole school priority. The Hearts project was developed to build the capacity of Liverpool schools to address the critical issues of attachment and trauma for the benefit of the whole learning community. As a school we have attended training, delivered staff training and submitted research projects. There is clear evidence that the project is having a positive impact and is supporting further development of inclusive practice. The research and training from this project have been used to inform our updated policy and remains a whole school priority.
