Behaviour Policy and
Practice Reviews:
Gaining and sustaining radical,
relational behaviour change
School leaders, are you seeking to establish a consistent and
compassionate approach to behaviour across your school?
Do your staff need tools to better anticipate and address persistent
low-level disruption?
We support schools to evaluate behaviour practice and transform behaviour culture.
OUR IMPACT:
Too often school teams are working with behaviour policies that do not reflect or respond effectively to the needs of the school community.
Our distinct blend of capacity-building and leadership support leads to lasting transformation, where staff and students feel more invested and inspired.
THROUGH OUR CONSULTANCY AND TRAINING SCHOOL TEAMS GET:
CLARITY
-
Understanding where good practice is happening in school.
-
The specific knowledge and skills that are contributing to the success.
-
How these skills can be transferred and success increased.
-
Strategies for dealing with persistent
behaviour ‘hot-spots.’ -
A roadmap and remedies for what is
limiting success with behaviour, attitudes
and classroom management.
CO-OPERATION
-
Staff develop a shared understanding that behaviour is everyone’s concern.
-
Schools note a greater sense of inspiration and investment from staff and students.
-
Inclusive and proportionate behaviour
systems result in deeper reflection and
greater co-operation from students.
CONSISTENCY
-
Rules and routines shift from being laminated to being stated.
-
The consistent language leads to a greater capacity for reflection and preservation of relationships.
-
All staff have an increased capacity to understand and respond to behaviour.
-
Leaders, teaching and support staff have a joined-up approach to behaviours that are to be corrected or commended.

Patrick Cozier – Headteacher
Highgate Wood Secondary School
Tracey worked with my behaviour lead and Deputy Head, leading to a complete transformation of our approach to behaviour management.
Tracey was instrumental in the way that we changed our thinking and our practice to ensure that all staff and students lived the values that we have as a school on a day-to-day basis. This involved supporting us with breaking down and simplifying our values into something that was both tangible and meaningful – and then translating these into specific behaviour designed to embed them into our everyday language, practice and expectations.

Coldfall Primary School
I had been a Behaviour Lead for 12 years before beginning the work with Tracey and to honest, I found the role very challenging. I was constantly questioning myself about decisions I had made in the day.
Once we engaged in a behaviour review process, the clarity about my role increased incredibly. The way we respond to behaviour now is a lot less emotionally driven; we are calm and have developed an effective and consistent approach. Tracey’s approach to behaviour policy and practice really does work and made a massive change to my school.
