We will do this by supporting their social and emotional needs, teaching them to become confident, independent learners who can thrive in a changing and demanding world and are proud of their achievements, encouraging their creative talents and guiding them to make informed choices about their future.
Our conduct and relationships policy will underpin this and support our students to become inquisitive, respectful, honest, responsible and resilient members of their school and wider society who celebrate and embrace diversity.
As a rights respecting school, it is our aim to embed these values in daily academy life, facilitating our transforming life chances agenda.
Our students will feel safe and cared for and will know that they are at the heart of our community.
We will ensure that our vision of ‘Child first’ is embedded in everything we do to ensure every child learns, every child achieves, and every child is looking forward and has ambitious aspirations for their future.
At Goodwin Academy, we believe that promoting positive behaviour for learning and allowing students opportunities to correct poor conduct, supports them to develop as reflective, independent learners.
Poor conduct is a choice and students are clear that poor conduct will result in clear, consistent sanctions. Equally, students can choose to correct their negative conduct and benefit from our school rewards system.
At every stage, we encourage our students to make the right choices regarding their conduct and reward our students who model our BEST agenda by being positive role models for their peers. We remind students what it means to be a member of the Goodwin Academy community through our 'This is who we are' ethos, encouraging our students to be 'Ready to learn', 'Respectful to all' and 'Safe at all times.'
