Promoting Positive Behaviour
In Moorpark Primary we use a variety of rewards and sanctions to ensure that all of our children are happy and safe and have the opportunity to achieve their full potential in a calm and ordered atmosphere. In order to meet the needs of all pupils individual and community strategies, such as Restorative Approaches, are used by all staff to promote positive behaviour.
Classroom Incentives
Each class teacher should use their own group, team or individual points system to reward children in their class. Each week a ‘star’ will be identified from each class and they will receive a certificate – this can be for any form of achievement. All children will receive at least one star certificate in a session.
Each class should have a ‘Class Charter’ drawn up in collaboration with their teacher. This should be displayed prominently in the classroom and regularly amended and referred to. The Class Charter should, where possible, use the language of the UNCRC.
