Our Behaviour Approach

A Positive Approach to Behaviour and Wellbeing

At The Belsteads School, we have a Relationship Policy rather than a traditional Behaviour Policy, built around mutual respect across our school community.

We believe in creating “connections, not corrections”, helping our students develop the self-regulation, resilience, self-esteem and confidence they need to thrive both in school and beyond.

Our Approach is Centred Around Three Key Elements

Trauma Perceptive Practice (TPP)
