Violence and Aggression Statement

This statement is important because:

  • All children have the right to learn and play in an environment that feels safe and secure.
  • All staff have the right to come to work and be treated with respect by all.
  • All parents and visitors have the right to respect and positive interactions while at school.

Anyone who feels they have been the victim of violence or aggression on school property or regarding a school issue should report it immediately to Mrs Jess (Headteacher). All reports of this nature will be taken seriously.

Where incidents involve children, enhanced planning is always put in place around the situation to minimise the chance of any reoccurrence. Good communication between school and home is vital and we really value parent’s communication with us around any issues and we value partnership working. We work in partnership with other agencies, as necessary, to ensure all pupils’ needs are met.  All incidents are taken seriously and are logged.

As staff we model the expected standards of behaviour to children through our interactions with each other as well as with pupils and we have to ask that parents and visitors to the school also follow the expected standards of behaviour. This applies to face to face interactions and to electronic communication including emails and  posts on Social Media (e.g. Facebook and Whatsapp).  While we understand that parents sometimes feel upset or heightened about issues relating to their child, we expect all communication with and about school to be calm and respectful. Nothing shared on Social Media is ever truly private.  Please don’t post anything on Social Media unless you would say it face to face to a staff member.

Incidents of this nature are few and far between at our school and we are grateful to all parents who work productively with us to make our school a safe and happy place to play, learn and work.
