  31. P.E and school teams • Natural ability for the sport – based upon application of skills / recorded times / distance + the considered opinion of the staff in charge of the training session (class lesson and/or after school club). • Where selection involves children of equal ability, preference will be given to the child in the older year group. • Children will be given the opportunity to represent their houses in half-termly inter-house competitions.

  32. Year 6 responsibilities Role models Duties inc. library, playtime door duties, tuck, wet play monitors, play leaders Buddies

  33. Working in class • Class agreement

  34. Working in Class • BLP – Reflective/ independent learners

  35. Working in class • Working independently • Working in pairs or groups • Collaboration • Ability groups – flexibility • Use of Monkey Box

  36. Behaviour • All classes use the 7 Golden Rules which are displayed in each classroom and areas such as the hall and ICT suite. • Golden Plate • Each child will have a ‘plate’ template which is divided into 7 sections – each section will relate to a Golden Rule. • Children will be awarded a sticker for specific section when they have demonstrated that rule exceptionally well. • Children who complete their plate will receive an award at the end of each term.

  37. Individual Reward – Golden plate Thank you for being honest Thank you for working hard Thank you for being gentle Every child has a ‘plate’ template which is divided into 7 sections – each section relates to a Golden Rule. Thank you for being polite Thank you for looking after property Thank you for being kind and helpful Thank you for listening

  38. Individual Reward – Golden plate Children will be awarded a sticker for specific section when they have demonstrated that rule exceptionally well. Children who complete their plate will receive an award at the end of each term. Plate 1 – certificate and Moor Hall pencil. Plate 2 – certificate and Moor Hall pen Plate 3 – certificate and Moor Hall ruler If a child is awarded all 3 plates within an academic year they will be rewarded with a Moor Hall enamel badge.

  39.  KS2 • Each class will use a ‘classometer’ ranging from -5 to 10 to monitor behaviour throughout the day. • The classometer should return to 0 at the end of each day. • Once the children reach 10 they should be rewarded with a golden coin (or equivalent). • Class teachers to negotiate with the children their choice of reward once the class reach 5, 10, 15 and 20 golden coins.

  40. Consequences • This staged approach will be used across a half-day session in KS2 • Stage One – Focus on Golden Rules • Re-focus the child on the Golden Rule they are breaking. • Positive reinforcement of the Golden Rules around the child who is breaking them. • Stage 2 – Manage their Environment • Staff will make a statement indicating that the behaviour is misplaced for that environment (classroom \ playground).   • Provide choices – change of location within that environment. • Change the child’s location to a different environment. (This is referred to as Time Out – see Stage 3) • Stage 3 – Putting it Right. • The “Put It Right” sheet is a strategy to help children reflect upon negative behaviour, offer an opportunity to rectify mistakes, and move on. • “Put It Right” sheets will be completed for any time-out period. • Staff will review completed “Put It Right” sheet with the child before they can return to their original environment. • “Put It Right” sheets should be kept in a class file for future reference
