Behaviour Core Principles:
Behaviour is Communication: We recognise that all behaviour is an expression
of underlying emotions or needs, and we respond accordingly.
Relationships are the Foundation of Learning: Building strong, trusting
relationships between students and staƯ is essential for eƯective education.
Trauma-Informed Practice Supports Emotional Growth: We acknowledge the
impact of trauma on behaviour and emotional development and tailor our
responses with sensitivity.
Co-Regulation Before Correction: We support students in managing their
emotions alongside them rather than simply imposing consequences.
Understanding Needs Over Punishment: We focus on meeting the needs
behind behaviours rather than relying on punitive measures.
Consistency, Predictability, and Fairness: Clear and consistent expectations
help students feel secure and understand boundaries.
Positive Behaviour for Learning: We promote engagement through a curriculum
designed to inspire and motivate students, encouraging positive choices.
Expectations
At Enrich Academy, our expectations are simple, consistent, and focused on keeping
everyone safe and successful. We encourage all students to:
- Be respectful – towards themselves, others, and the environment.
- Be kind – showing understanding and empathy in all interactions.
- Be safe – making positive choices that protect their own and others’ wellbeing.
- Be ready – prepared to learn and engage in opportunities.
- Be proud – of their achievements, progress, and positive contributions.
These expectations are at the heart of our school culture and apply both inside and
outside the classroom.
Rewards
At Enrich Academy, we believe in encouraging positive behaviour by recognising and
celebrating effort, progress, and achievements. Our reward system is designed to
motivate students, reinforce our expectations, and create a positive learning
atmosphere. Alongside this, we have clear and fair responses to behaviour concerns,
ensuring consistency and support throughout.
We believe that recognising and celebrating positive choices builds confidence, selfesteem, and motivation. Students can earn Reward Points for:
Learning – effort, progress, and perseverance.
Behaviour – making positive choices, managing challenges and positive
language.
Engagement – participation, attention and completing tasks.
