8. Conduct

We expect high standards of conduct at all times. Below is an extract from our Covid Behaviour Policy addendum. The full policy is available on our website.

Behaviour Principles

The impact of the pandemic in terms of schooling will be significant for all the community, especially children. When the school is re-opened (at whatever point in the academic year) the school environment and expectations will be hugely different to that of previous experiences.

Children, parents and staff will have to quickly learn a number of new systems, rules and expectations. Explicit teaching with children regarding these changes will be put in place as the children return to school.

The school will continue to use the full behaviour policy as a frame of reference however there will need to be case-by-case adjustments when dealing with behavioural incidents and when rewarding good behaviour, i.e. detentions would not be logistically possible or safe.

Additional expectations for behaviour at Crosfields from 1 st June 2020:

Children (and parents) are expected to follow the altered routines for arrival or departure. Children are expected to follow school hygiene procedures such as handwashing and the use of sanitizers. Children are expected to follow expectations about sneezing, coughing, tissues and disposal (‘catch it, bin it, kill it’). Tissues are provided in each classroom but pupils should also bring their own. Children are expected to follow (to the best of their ability and age dependent) instructions on social distancing. Children are expected to only interact with others in their pod throughout the school day. Children are expected to move around the school safely and sensibly following staff instructions (for example, one-way systems, out of bounds areas, queuing) Children are expected to follow rules about sharing resources and equipment. Children are expected to tell an adult if they are feeling unwell or worried.
