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
At Macaulay, we are an inspirational, nurturing and inclusive community that celebrates each child as uniquely created by God. Inspired by Psalm 139:14, we believe every child is valued, gifted and full of potential to flourish and make a positive contribution to their wider communities.
Our Christian Values help build an enabling environment, foster positive relationships and guide us towards fulfilling our vision.
They are:
Resilience Compassion Thankfulness Friendship Creativity Responsibility
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.
Pupils engage in their learning and achieve highly. They have positive relationships with staff and are kind and respectful to one another.

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.
