Great Abington Primary School

Behaviour Support

Great Abington Primary School uses a therapeutic approach to behaviour which assists the school in fulfilling its Values, Personal Qualities and Vision by: 

 

  • Teaching pupils to understand that their behaviour has an impact on themselves and others  
  • Helping pupils achieve self-discipline, tolerance and respect for others  
  • Providing an environment where pupils feel safe and happy  
  • Being consistent with values, actions, language and responses 

 

We believe that pro-social behaviour and self-discipline are based on mutual knowledge and respect. Positive affirmation should have a place in achieving prosocial behaviour, but it must be recognised that consequences will result when pupils do not accept and follow the behaviour expectations and rules of the school. 

 

Acceptable standards of behaviour require us all to model by good example. High standards for politeness are expected. Respect is given and expected in return. We believe respect is fundamental to all positive relationships and is taught by modelling. 

 

Intrinsic to this approach is the additional belief that parents/carers, pupils and staff are all involved in a home/school partnership.
