pupils learn in a happy environment. We expect all<br />

school hours – assistant head<br />

Sanctions, when necessary, will be as follows:<br />

<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Detention during part of morning/lunch break.<br />
Detention after school with 24 hours notice<br />
given to parents.<br />
Internal exclusion from normal classes with<br />
work provided.<br />
For more serious offences fixed term, or even<br />
permanent, exclusions may be applied.<br />
