We are aiming to find a policy that supports the nurturing approach that is embedded at Barsail, whilst still clearly setting boundaries and expectations for the children. We currently operate a house system, details of which are summarised below. You will soon receive a text message with a link to a survey which will give you the chance to express your views on our current system. Please read the summary below before you complete this survey which should take less than 5 minutes. Feel free to discuss our policy with your child and include their views in the answers.<\/p>\n<p>Your input\u00a0as parents and carers is invaluable as you\u00a0are an integral part of your child&#8217;s education.<\/p>\n<p>Thanks in advance for your support on this matter.<\/p>\n<p>Jennifer Gibney<\/p>\n<p>Acting Principal Teacher<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><strong>House System<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Merits (To promote positive behaviour)<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>We use merits to promote positive behaviour. Pupils earn 3 merits a day by ensuring they meet Barsail Standard. If a child fails to meet this standard they won\u2019t gain these merits which each equate to 5 minutes of Fun Friday time lost.<\/p>\n<p><strong>House Points<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>House points are used as an incentive to work hard, display good manners, exceed expectation in terms of class work and being kind and helpful to others. House points are filled out in children\u2019s diaries at the end of each week. Extra incentives for the children include special treats for the winning house like extra play time, house parties and trips to soft play.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Demerits (Dealing with unacceptable behaviour)<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>At Barsail, we encourage children to behave well, work hard, show good manners and be respectful at all times.\u00a0 On the rare occasion that a child\u2019s behaviour is inappropriate, we have a demerit system.\u00a0 Demerits are given for behaviours identified by pupils, parents and staff as being unacceptable in our school. A letter is sent home to be signed which details the unacceptable behavior. Demerits result in loss of break time and possibly an age appropriate exercise and\/or loss of Friday Fun time.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Additional Behaviour Management Strategies<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>In addition to the House system, class teachers have additional incentives to encourage pupils such as group points, secret student, lucky dip etc. School management hand out Star Award certificates at assembly each week and personal achievements are recognised and celebrated.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>You should have received a letter to explain that we are revising our current behaviour policy at Barsail.
