Our School Rules

We have three very clear and powerful school rules. They are displayed throughout the school. The language is used by everyone, and they help everyone to understand how we behave at Woolmore.

Our rules are applied to different contexts and here are some examples.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

READY – are you ready?
• Are you ready to listen?
• Are you ready to learn?
• Are you ready for PE, with your kit?
• Are you ready for assembly to start?

RESPECTFUL – are you being respectful?
• Are we treating everyone with respect?
• Are we using kind words?
• Are we being polite and showing good manners?
• Are we including everyone?
• Are we thinking about others?

SAFE – are we all safe?
• Are we thinking about how to be safe in the playground?
• Are we doing the sensible ‘Woolmore Walk’?
• Have we tied our shoelaces?
• Are we managing our bodies?
• Do we tell an adult if we are unhappy?
• Do we help our friends to stay safe too?

We also:

• meet and greet children with a handshake and a smile because it makes  children feel important and valued and helps them feel that they belong to the Woolmore family;

• shake hands and say goodbye at the end of the day in the playground to ensure that all children are safely dismissed.

We value and recognise behaviour that is over and above by awarding special mentions and sending notecards home.

Our rules are underpinned by our school values, which you can see HERE.
