Blakehill Primary School Behaviour Curriculum
Our school behaviour curriculum and a graduated approach to behaviour management are both designed to create a safe, respectful, and inclusive learning environment where children can succeed academically, socially, and emotionally.
Aims of a School Behaviour Curriculum
A behaviour curriculum teaches pupils the behaviours, routines, and social expectations needed to thrive in school and beyond. Its aims typically include:
- Creating a Safe and Positive Environment
- Teaching Expected Behaviours Explicitly
- Developing Social and Emotional Skills
- Promoting Consistency Across the School
- Encouraging Positive Relationships
- Supporting Learning and Achievement
- Preparing Pupils for Life Beyond School
Aims of a Graduated Approach to Behaviour Management
A graduated approach means behaviour support is provided in increasing levels of intervention depending on a child’s needs. The aim is early support rather than punishment alone.
Key Aims
- Early Identification and Support
- Inclusive Practice
- Proportionate and Flexible Responses
- Understanding Behaviour as Communication
- Building Self-Regulation
- Using Evidence-Based Interventions
- Strengthening Multi-Agency Collaboration
- Reducing Exclusions and Serious Incidents
