As an update to our Behaviour for Learning Policy we are introducing the following 'Consequence' system from January 2012. This has been decided as a result of feedback from staff, students and parents. Behaviour is good at Settle College as evidenced by Ofsted but we think it could be outstanding if we can reduce some of the low level disruption in lessons from some students.
If a student misbehaves in a lesson the following will occur:
The student is given a verbal warning and their name is written on the board- Consequence 1
The student is given another verbal warning and their name is ticked, this may be accompanied by a change of seat- Consequence 2
If a student continues to misbehave they are given one final warning- Consequence 3
If the student does not settle down to work after a 'Consequence 3' they are removed by a senior member of staff and they will work in the Inclusion Room. A letter will be sent home to parents explaining why their son/daughter was removed from the lesson. If a student is removed from a lesson they also receive a break time detention and will be put on report for the rest of the day. If a student fails to hand in the report card at the end of the day or fails to attend the break time detention they will be put in isolation for the day. Parents will be informed.
If a student is removed from two lessons in one week they will receive a day's isolation and parents will be informed.
This will not be relevant to the majority of students at Settle College who follow the College Code of Conduct on a day to day basis.
