In addition to modelling good behaviour and exemplifying the Glemsford Scales, as responsible adults we try at all times to:
- encourage good behaviour and correct poor choices of behaviour;
- make all pupils aware that if they do not abide by the Glemsford Scales, there will always be consequences;
- acknowledge and reward positive behaviour wherever and whenever we see it;
- pre-empt negative attitudes and unwanted behaviour by maintaining a positive and encouraging environment
- in which all pupils and adults feel included and valued.
Further details of our expectations, rewards and sanctions can be found in the attached Behaviour & Relationships Policy.

There must not be any fear of, or intimidation from, other people, either physical or psychological.
