Pupil Behaviour

At Hawthorn Community Primary School, we aim to create a consistent, calm, caring, safe environment in which children can work towards achieving their full potential. Every member of staff in school has a duty of care towards the children, regardless of their job role. Our Behaviour Policy is available on our Behaviour and Antibullying page for parents

Behaviour at Hawthorn Community Primary School

What our children say:

Our school is filled with kindness and hard-working children. We enjoy our days at school and everyone has fun together. We like seeing our friends in the kind environment created at Hawthorn. Our adults listen to us and give us choices, and they have conversations with us when things go wrong. We always have someone to talk to. We like coming to school as our teachers are nice and we like learning and playing together. We have lots of different lessons and there is always something fun that we are being asked to do.

Written by the children collectively from Years 1-6, July 2024.

Suspensions and Permanent Exclusions

Any serious or violent behaviour towards a child or an adult will result in parents being informed and either an internal suspension (this will take place in school with the child being removed from class, or at another school in the Trust for a fixed period of time), a fixed term suspension (where the child will spend the suspension period at home) or on rare occasions of persistent violent outbursts, permanent exclusion. Should there be a need to suspend a child, this takes place the day of, or after, the offence and it is the parent’s duty to make arrangements for their child. Parents will receive a letter outlining the details and reasons for the suspension. The LEA and DFE will also be notified. See Behaviour for Learning Policy for more detailed information. 

Pupil Premium and Sports Premium
