Stage 1

1. Behaviour dealt with by staff member present

or, if retrospectively, by the form/class teacher.

Child given a 10 minute ‘time out’ in the

classroom or playground (dependent on where

and when the incident takes place).

In the lunch hall, this will be on a designated

table and if on the playground, the child will stand

with the teacher/staff member on duty.

Stage 2: If this behaviour persists or

worsens…

The child will be sent to another classroom in another

year group for a further ‘time out’ for the remainder of

the lesson. If this takes place at break time, the child

will be have a ‘time out’ with the staff member on duty

for the remainder of the break. The staff member,

dealing with this should then communicate this to all

staff and record the incident.

Significant, serious and/or dangerous behaviour will

result in a straight ‘time out’. This is also the case with

swearing. This can and should be dealt with by the

member of staff at hand.

Significantly disrespectful, rude, aggressive or abusive

behaviour should be brought straight to either the

Deputy Head or the Headteacher.

When a child is hurt and/or been injured, the

teacher/member of staff dealing with the incident

should inform the child’s parents that day, ideally in

person or by phone.

Stage 3: Arrange Parent/Carer & Teacher

Meeting – when behaviour continues over time/a

few incidents

When a child receives several (3 or more) ‘time outs’,

over the period of a few weeks or a half-term, away

from their class or the playground, the teacher who

has given the majority of the ‘time outs’ or the

class/form teacher if it has varied, will arrange a

meeting with the child’s parents to discuss their child’s

behaviour. The teacher should prepare for this

meeting and have strategies and actions ready to put

in place and agree with the child’s parents.

Dealt with by Class/Form Teacher

Stage 4: If behaviour continues after

meeting and strategies put in place…

After this meeting, if the poor behaviour persists or

worsens, another meeting will be arranged with the

class/form teacher, the pre-prep or prep leader and

the child’s parents/carers. The child will then be

given a half-day ‘time out’ away from their lessons

and spend that time with another class in a different

year group, working on the work he/she has been

set.

Dealt with by Class Teacher and Pre-Prep/Prep

Leader

Stage 5: If behaviour persist after meeting

between prep/pre-prep leader and parents

If poor/inappropriate behaviour continues after this meeting,

a meeting will be arranged between the child’s

parents/carers and the deputy head. It may or may not be

suitable for the child to be present. The child will then have a

day of ‘time out’ with another class (in another year group).

This meeting will serve as a ‘final warning’ and strategies

and measures will be discussed.

Dealt with by Deputy Head

Stage 6: Meeting with Headteacher after

persistent/very serious poor behaviour.

If the behaviour continues, a meeting will be arranged

between the Headteacher and the child’s parents. This

meeting could result in an internal or external

exclusion, dependent on the Headteacher’s discretion

and judgement.

Dealt with by Headteacher
