Just Learn is committed to providing an effective learning environment that aims to:
- Maximise every learning opportunity and minimise unwanted behaviour, in order to enable students to become effective learners
- Acknowledge sustained and improved personal/academic achievement
- Promote self-reflection and individual responsibility.
- Reward individual effort produced over and above Just Learn ethos – for example; through the use of appropriate praise, effective learning stickers, work on display, educational trips connected to the curriculum
In order for this to happen the rights of staff, visitors and students are acknowledged these are:
- to be listened to
- to be treated with respect
- to be treated fairly and consistently
- to work and learn without unnecessary interruption
- to feel supported
Students who attend Just Learn will all have emotional, social or medical needs. A core function of Just Learn is to reduce the impact of a situation on the student’s emotional, social and educational vulnerability to enable each student to learn strategies in order that they can move on.
This will be achieved by:
- Working with the student, families, other statutory and voluntary agencies, through their planning and review mechanisms and the pupils own IEP and reintegration reviews
- Providing a curriculum which includes the teaching of effective learning behaviours, life skills and emotional intelligence
Bullying, racism or sexism of any kind is totally unacceptable, will not be tolerated and action will be taken.
