Logical Consequences in Practice at Brompton:
Logical consequences follow discussion between adult and student regarding emotions/feelings students had prior to the incident Adults and students are part of the consequence decision making process.
1. A child hits another child with a stick. A reminder is given but a recurrence happens: A logical consequence could be the student does not play with sticks for a determined amount of time
2. A child hits/throws/kicks a ball at another child. A reminder is given but a recurrence happens: A logical consequence could be the child is not allowed to play with balls for a determined amount of time.
3 A child digs a hole in the field, yard, or another location other than the mud pit A logical consequence could be the child is not allowed to dig for a determined amount of time.
4. A child destroys school material. A logical consequence could be to contact parent, and as a team (including child) agree the child will have chores at home to earn the money to replace (or partially replace) broken item
5. Two students are in a physical altercation; there are no physical injuries. Our main goal is to support students with strategies for conflict resolution. Administration will meet with students to facilitate this process.
