• Be healthy • Stay Safe • Enjoy and Achieve • Make a positive contribution • Achieve Economic well being. Rules builds up trust, a common standard for children and young people and I feel it is essential for young people to learn respect for others , self-control and social interaction with others. All schools have policies and they are not stand alone as they have to relate to Local Authority and national guidelines. e.g The Children's Act 2004. The reason for these policies are to promote positive behaviour and all schools have policies on : • Behaviour • Bullying • Child Protection • Equal Opportunities As a TA it is our responsibility to find out about the role of staff, rewards and sanctions and training.
At the heart of these statements is the ultimate aim of helping all our children achieve the Desired Outcomes of Education.

UNIT 304 Knowledge Understand policies and procedures for promoting children and young people’s positive behaviour. 1.1 The policies and procedures we use in our setting relevant to promoting positive behaviour are the ‘Good behaviour for learning policy’ and the ‘Dealing with bullying policy’. The Good behaviour for learning policy explains what, as a setting, we expect from our pupils, staff, parents, governors and even visitors. It sets out our code of conduct, it explains how, as a school, we develop a positive learning atmosphere, what classroom management strategies we use and about the rewards and sanctions too. It lays out what we expect from the parents and what we will give back to them.
Unit 145 Promote professional development Outcome 1 Understand principals of professional development 1.1 Explain the importance of continually improving knowledge and practice. * Staff will be able to support children’s learning successfully because they will have high expectations of what children can achieve and a secure knowledge of how children learn best. * Keeping abreast of changes to the Early Years Foundation Stage, Safeguarding and SEND code of practice. * Keeping abreast of changes to policies, staff contracts * Staffs are confident in the curriculum they are delivering to the children in their care. * Business and reputation * Promotion prospects * CPD * Ofsted “CPD ensures that professionals remain up to date in a changing world and that the reputation of the profession is enhanced, encouraging individuals to aspire to improve performance and ensure they are committed to learning and it is an integral part of their work” Whittaker 1992 1.2 Analyse potential barriers to professional development.
This in turn should create a caring, happy atmosphere in the school which can enable effective teaching and learning. The school has its own code of conduct which all members of the school are to support. The school code of conduct is as follows; This is our school we will: • look after everything in and around it • follow instructions first time • always do our best work and let others do the same • treat everyone as we would like them to treat us • move sensibly round school and always walk inside. The school looks out for positive behaviour done by pupils and emphasis is placed on the acknowledgement of this. There is to be a clear understanding by staff, pupils are parents of what is acceptable and unacceptable behaviour.
St Johns’ achieves their mission statement by making sure children develop social and personal skills through learning with, and alongside others within the Christian content of the school. Children need a positive image of themselves in order to successful learners Children need equality of opportunity to gain full access to the curriculum Active involvement makes learning more interesting, more meaningful and more likely to make sense to pupils. Problem solving and making investigations is an important part of primary education. This form of learning helps children to think more, raise questions, try out ideas and record their findings. They welcome the involvement of parents.
Formative assessment or AFL is an inclusive practice that must involve all pupils, to provide them with information about how well they are doing and guide their efforts that follow after for future progression. Black and William’s (1998) review proved that formative assessment raises standards of achievement and equips children for life-long learning. Formative assessment has a multitude of ways that, as teachers, use to assess pupils and provide improvement explicitly where they can in the day to day teaching practise. A positive classroom environment should not be simply thought of by the externals physical factors of wall displays, layout, accessibility, ventilation, temperature or lighting. Yes, these are contributing factors, and a child must be able to feel safe and calm in the class or school environment.
Duties and responsibilities of own work role.....

This will be because the parent and teacher will be seen to be working toward the same ends, although at times from different perspectives. The school parental involvement policy provides a platform where every parent is to given equal priority and this consequently removes discriminatory and cultural barriers. The Benefits of Parental Involvement in Schools Parents’ help in the school is extremely valuable, whether it is within the class or to the school as a whole. Education research repeatedly documents that parent and community involvement in education contributes to students’ academic success. According to Henderson & Berla, (1995) & National PTA (1998) “When parents are involved, students achieve more, regardless of socio-economic status, ethnic/racial background, or the parents' education level”.
In providing the proper atmosphere for learning, classroom management is an important key in the success of your school year. The key ingredients for successful classroom management include a clear and concise presentation of all expectations, rules, policies and boundaries by the teacher and a clear understanding and agreement for compliance by the students. Students should also have a clear understanding of the consequences for disobedience. This precedence should be established before the school year begins and reinforced in a positive way daily by doing the routine things routinely. One activity I would like to implement would be an integrity chart.
