These three principles form our behaviour policy and apply equally to staff and students, ensuring consistency across the school. Understanding and modelling them is vital. 

• Ready: This means being prepared, punctual, attentive, and equipped for your role. For teaching staff, it involves following the SKOLA Teaching Framework and curriculum. For all staff, it means being purposeful and clear in communication. Poor examples include being late or unprepared.

• Safe: Ensuring the physical and emotional safety of our students and staff is paramount. This involves adhering to safeguarding procedures, conducting risk assessments, maintaining professional boundaries, and communicating in a way that creates a secure environment. Unsafe behaviour includes violence or dangerous actions.

• Kind: We expect all interactions to be polite, supportive, considerate, and empathetic. This applies to how we speak to students, parents, and colleagues. It means fostering teamwork and trust and challenging unkind behaviour like bullying or derogatory language.

Putting it into Practice: Your calm, consistent behaviour sets the standard. Focus on positive behaviour first ('1st Attention'). Use established routines like 'Meet & Greet' and 'End & Send' to support a structured environment.
