Mobile Phones

“Out of Sight, out of Mind”

• You are allowed to bring a mobile phone into school, as long as it is turned off and out of sight.

• Mobile phones must not be visible in the building, but you can use them outside.

• You can choose to give your phone to your teacher as you arrive so that you are not tempted to use it during a lesson.

• If you do use your phone in a lesson or anywhere inside the building (corridors and refectory included) your phone will be confiscated.

• If your phone is confiscated, a parent or guardian will need to come to reception to pick it up after school has finished.

Rewards

You can be given House points as a reward for positive behaviour. These can be awarded for lots of different things such as:

• Excellent effort

• Excellent Classwork

• Completing Homework

• Very Good Attendance

• Good Citizenship

• Using Incidental Welsh

• Taking part in extra-curricular activities (sports, drama, music, after school clubs)

• Plus lots more

Sanctions

Sometimes sadly however, we have to remove credits for pupils who display negative behaviours from time to time. At Ysgol Harri Tudur/Henry Tudor School we use a 3 step behaviour policy:

• Chance (C1)

• Choice (C2)

• Consequence (C3)

Your will be giving one chance (warning) about the negative behaviour being displayed. You then have a choice to stop or continue with this negative behaviour. If you choose to continue with the negative behaviour there will be a consequence for you.

Depending upon the negative behaviour being displayed and how you respond when challenged about it the chart below shows how you will be dealt with.
