Positive Behaviour
Pupils behave well, and they take pride in being positive role models to others. For example, older pupils are proud to be chosen to support younger pupils as ‘playground mentors’.
Ofsted Report, 2023
Macaulay is a church school, wherein we strive to nurture a family atmosphere. At the very heart of all we do, are our shared Christian values.
These values help build an enabling environment, foster positive relationships and guide us towards our goals. They are:
Forgiveness
Courage
Generosity
Compassion
Wisdom
Friendship
Service
Creativity
Peace
Trust
Thankfulness
Justice
We recognise that every child has the right to learn and develop to the best of their ability in a safe, supportive environment, and that they are entitled to trust that this right is respected by the whole school community.
The value of forgiveness colours the way in which conduct is managed to guarantee exemplary behaviour and caring relationships.
SIAMS, July 2014
We believe in positive reinforcement, praise and encouragement, and recognise that by focusing on positive behaviour, we marginalise that which is unacceptable. Doing the right thing then becomes the more natural way to behave.
