Robert Wilkinson Primary Academy

We think that every kid should have the chance to succeed in a community that is safe and supportive at school.
We make sure that kids have a variety of traits, attitudes, and abilities when they graduate from Robert Wilkinson Primary Academy so that they are well-prepared for the future.
We are pleased to state that we give your child's mental health and wellness a high priority and that we regard it as part of our responsibility as educators to prepare kids for life's challenges, stresses, and conflicts in addition to teaching them to read and write.
In addition to giving your child a top-notch education in all of the essential areas while they are enrolled with us, we also make an effort to develop their social and emotional skills.
We'll try to give the kids useful life skills and the resources they'll need to deal with the difficulties they'll encounter as they learn, develop, and grow throughout time.
Our essential beliefs as a restorative school are built around three themes.
These values are the cornerstones of our behaviour management strategy, and we prioritise empowering kids with the knowledge and tools they need to talk about their emotions and voice their opinions on matters that are significant to them.
The text that follows is crucial to how we operate at Robert Wilkinson Primary Academy.
The chart illustrating our behavioural expectations provides a concise manual for all school personnel, students, and parents.
All students strive to behave in a Good or even Wow manner at all times because this typically indicates that they are giving it their all and are content with both themselves and those around them.
Our school routines play a similar role, assisting EVERY student in understanding what is expected of them.

The above poster serves as a guidance for staff and students in resolving conflict situations in addition to the behaviour chart. (And how can we start mending some of the damage done?
Students are commended for being honest, and they frequently collaborate in "Solution Circles" to find the necessary solutions, gradually developing mutual respect and trust.
With "Restorative" methods, students become increasingly accountable for their behaviour as they advance through the educational system.
The intention is for students' behaviours to improve because they recognise the importance of forging a sense of community and treating others with respect, rather than in order to receive praise or stay out of trouble.
In place of breaking the law, it emphasises making things right.
As part of our daily routine, all pupils will be given the opportunity to 'check in' with staff to allow them the opportunity to express how they are feeling.
This could be a rating, a number up to 10, or a colour associated with a certain emotion.
The colour system supports language development and the ability to express why we are a certain score.
As they move through school, pupils are encouraged to develop their vocabulary further and learn how to support and help each other to be nearer a ten or yellow in colour.
