Behaviour and attitudes
The Hazeley Academy is a safe, calm and nurturing school, we take pride in establishing a climate which minimalises disruption and in turn leads to excellent outcomes.
Ofsted 2024
'The school has successfully created a caring culture based on strong routines, excellent relationships, recognition of success and restorative practice. This is highly evident and means that pupils feel extremely safe.'
`Pupils’ behaviour is calm and orderly because of the school’s high expectations'
Our Behaviour Curriculum is based on two assumptions :
-
All students want to do what is expected of them.
-
What is often considered poor behaviour from students is often due to a lack of high expectations, clarity, consistency and respect in adult behaviour.
We endeavour to support the minority of students who encounter difficulties in reaching our expectations in a myriad of appropriate ways, considering individual needs and make reasonable adjustments.
