Ipswich Academy’s behaviour approach aims to support staff and pupils to develop positive relationships which will lead to a secure learning environment for all.

Teaching and learning can only take place in an atmosphere of calm purposefulness.

The academy’s approach to behaviour management aims to foster in pupils:

• Good learning behaviours e.g. listening, attention, participation, effort, positive attitude, co-operation
• Positive and pro-social values
• Self esteem and confidence
• A positive attitude about their abilities
• A sense of responsibility for their actions
• An understanding of cause and consequence.

Rewards system:

The academy uses a star point system and postcards to reward students on a daily basis for progress, attainment and behaviour.

At the end of each term student success is celebrated in rewards assemblies.
