Ready to Learn
Our Croesy Ready to Learn clearly demonstrates our expectations for all pupils and is underpinned by our school values of Learning, Respect and Ambition. Staff are expected to frequently reinforce these expectations in order to secure a successful learning environment and establish an inclusive school culture where all pupils can thrive. The Croesy Ready to Learn is displayed and promoted across the school and all pupils are expected to follow our expectations.
Acknowledging pupils who display conduct in line with the school values is essential to foster positive relationships and behaviour. Our whole school behaviour system is aligned with ClassCharts, enabling pupils to monitor their personal behaviour score and allowing parents and carers to monitor their child’s attitude to learning throughout the school day.
Staff utilise ClassCharts to recognise and reward pupils who consistently demonstrate positive attitudes to learning in line with our school values. We also use the following to acknowledge and celebrate these pupils:
-
Verbal praise
-
Classchart achievement points
-
Positive phonecalls home
-
Positive postcards
-
Student shout outs
-
Student of the week
-
Student of the Month (Headteacher Award)
-
End of term celebration assemblies
-
Awards evening
Despite our consistent routines and systems, some pupils at times may demonstrate behaviours that are not in line with our expectations. Our staged approach behaviour system is used by all staff to record and address negative behaviours in and outside of the classroom and allows pupils to understand that these behaviours lead to consequences. Pupils who make poor behaviour choices are issued with sanctions and are supported and encouraged to reflect on their behaviour.
At Croesyceiliog, all consequences are closely linked to interventions to enable us to support pupils in facilitating long-term behaviour change that will enable them to re-engage

Pupils who make poor behaviour choices are issued with sanctions and are supported and encouraged to reflect on their behaviour.
At Croesyceiliog, all consequences are closely linked to interventions to enable us to support pupils in facilitating long-term behaviour change that will enable them to re-engage
positively in school. Pupils attitude to learning is effectively tracked and monitored by the wellbeing team to identify students who present as vulnerable due to persistent behaviour issues. Interventions include:
-
Restorative/reflective practice
-
Monitoring
-
Behaviour plan
-
Internal interventions
-
Bespoke provision
In all cases, the pupil is placed at the centre of any intervention and their effectiveness is reviewed and evaluated regularly.
