1. Standards for success policy
Improving student learning and enjoyment at goole academy through praise, positive discipline, adult guidance and instruction

2. First time every time
When an adult asks you to do something you will follow that instruction.
No delay
No negotiating
You are expected to comply
No “why” questions, just complete the task/instruction

3. Asking why Why is always a useful question and helps with learning
It is part of the key questions for your learning, ‘what, where, when, why and how’
Use these words in your learning but do not bring them into play when your behaviour is being questioned
Correct your behaviour, draw a line under the situation and move on to your learning

4. First time every time simply means that
A huge majority of students follow all instructions first time every time and come to school focused on their learning
830 students have never been excluded
More than 9 out of 10 students have never been in IE
Last year 52% of students received no warnings, not a single C1,C2 etc
428 pupils in this academy (Y7-11) have NEVER received a detention

5. Rewards We now have the ability to email out rewards in real time
It is important to recognise your efforts and let parents/carers know about your successes
If you get recognised in geography period 2 on a Tuesday your parents/carers will have that information before 11.00am that day!

6. Sanctions
After consulting students and adults, the c scale has changed.
Too many changes are disturbing learning
As we believe discipline is learned through schooling then we would ask for more as you improve
C1 formal warning (recorded) and move seat
C2 up to 15 minutes detention with teacher at a time they choose (break, lunch, before/after school. We only expect to give notice for the after school session if parents are uncontactable. Otherwise these sessions can happen straight away
C3 – 30mins with subject leader/head of department
C4 – 60 mins with head of faculty
C5 – SLT detention 90mins
C6 – Principal’s detention, IE from 12.20pm to 2.55pm and 90 mins after school
The adults will inform you of the sanction you have earned

7. Missing detentions
If you miss a detention you will move to the next level, after school
If you receive C3 or above, you will attend after school
This is important if you are a carer, pick up brothers or sisters or struggle with transport

8. Sequence
Not all actions merit the same response. You will choose the sanction through your actions and Responses and this could be C1 or above C1
Your choices are limiting your success in lesson, you are disturbing other’s learning or failing to follow rules or instructions
Official warning (logged) and pupil to move seat C2
Your choices continue to limit your success in lesson, you are still disturbing other’s learning or failing to follow rules or instructions
Up to 15 mins detention with teacher C3
You have chosen a longer detention through your response to warnings and requests to modify your behaviour or you have not attended a C2 detention
30 mins detention with Head of Department C4
You have failed to respond to instructions and warnings and so you have decided that you do not wish to be educated in lesson and will sit an extended detention or you have not attended a C3 detention
60 mins detention with Head of Faculty C5
Your choice to ignore the rules and policy has resulted in behaviours that are not acceptable or you have not attended a C4 detention
90 mins detention with Senior Leadership Team C6
You have chosen not to attend an SLT detention which is a serious sanction
IE and 90 mins detention with the Principal

9. Social times
You will only be allowed in designated areas, canteen (Central Café for Yr11), quad, or field (seasonal, with permission)
Being in out of bounds areas will mean an immediate detention that lunch and the following lunch the next day
A repeat of this will mean 5 days lunch detention. (we will order a grab bag for you if we provide your meals, or you must bring a pack up yourself.)
We will have staff patrolling the buildings and running detentions to make sure your learning is not disturbed
Social times are the only time that mobiles are allowed to be out and turned on
DO NOT HAVE MOBILES TURNED ON IN CLASSROOMS or BETWEEN LESSONS

10. Remember…
First time every time
This is our minimum expectation
