The starting point for learning is a positive ethos and climate of respect and trust based upon shared values across the school community, including parents of children and young people.
All members of staff should contribute through:
- open, positive, supportive relationships where children and young people will feel that they are listened to.
- promoting a climate in which children and young people feel safe and secure.
- modelling behaviour which promotes effective learning and wellbeing within the school community.
- being sensitive and responsive to each child or young person's wellbeing.
Children and young people should be encouraged to contribute to the life and work of the school and, from the earliest stages, to exercise their responsibilities as members of a community.
This includes opportunities to participate responsibly in decision-making, to contribute as leaders and role models, to offer support and service to others and to play an active part in putting the values of the school community into practice.
