Earlsfield Primary School
Behaviour Management Policy
INTRODUCTION
All staff at Earlsfield Primary School are involved in delivering the behavioural policy and fostering a
positive and consistent approach to behaviour management throughout the school. Our School Charter
sets out the expectations we have for pupils and pupils have for themselves. Not only does it reflect the
schools ethos of positive behaviour reinforcement, but is written in line with UNICEF’s Respecting Rights
and Responsibilities. The School Charter was written by the School Council.

In addition to the School Charter, all classes have their own Class Charter. This charter is drawn up by the
class and all the adults in the classroom. Each charter sets out the responsibilities for everybody in that
classroom in order to protect the rights of those people in the class. All class charters are age appropriate
so all the children can access and engage with it. It should be used as a tool that is frequently referred to.
The requirements outlined above are necessary, as we are a community. Any community operates
successfully as a result of shared respect, trust and understanding which is constantly worked towards by
all concerned. The nature of the children, staff, and parents/carers within Earlsfield School’s community
means that our expectations can be effectively met.
