Behaviour management is our core business. Most learners who attend the Bridge Academy have been failed by numerous interventions in their mainstream schools. We recognise that learners will often present with extremely challenging behaviours during their time with us. We manage their behaviours through the deployment of a whole school positive behaviour policy which includes clear expectations and a rewards system.
We use a pupil information management system (SIMS.net) to track all positive and negative behaviours throughout the day. Year team leaders and learning guides are able to monitor each learner and to target appropriate interventions as needed.
Wherever possible our responses to a particular behaviour are centred on the individual needs of the learner. If a learner is making progress in managing their behaviours there is always another chance for them at the Bridge.
