Here at Lacewood we believe the best way to encourage good standards of behaviour in school is to have a clear code of conduct backed by a balanced combination of rewards and sanctions.

Staff and pupils

 

In order that we can all work and learn in a safe, orderly environment each class has a clear set of rules, which are agreed by each key stage.

 

Keep your own work area tidy at all times.

 

Pupils who consciously make the effort to support our rules are rewarded by:

Verbal praise
