• Promoting excellent learning and teaching and high standards of attainment;

• Promoting positive relationships amongst all students, employees, tutors, contractors and associates;

• Deal with emerging misbehaviour early, calmly and confidently to minimise disruption, and students understand why sanctions are being applied.

Parents Expectations

We expect parents to:

• Ensure their child attends regularly and punctually as scheduled

• Monitor their child’s work and behaviour, passing comments to tutors;

• Reward personal achievement and good behaviour.

• Follow instructions without argument

• Active Listening

• Focus on tasks set

Bullying

Creative Mindset believe that all students are entitled to receive their education free from humiliation, intimidation, oppression and abuse.

It is the responsibility of employees, tutors, contractors and associates to ensure that this takes place.

Bullying can include:

• Verbal: name-calling, sarcasm, spreading rumours, teasing

• Emotional: being unfriendly, excluding, tormenting (e.g. hiding books, threatening gestures)

Physical: pushing, kicking, hitting, punching or any use of violence

• Racist: racial taunts, graffiti, gestures

• Sexual: unwanted physical contact or sexually abusive comments

• Homophobic: because of, or focusing on the issue of sexuality

• Cyber: all areas of internet such as email and internet chat room misuse

• Mobile: threats by text messaging

• Misuse of associated technology: camera and video facilities

Race relations & Discrimination

Creative Mindset has a duty to promote good race relations and will deal appropriately with racial incidents and record these.

While working in schools, the schools Behaviour Management Policy should be adhered to.

Should further clarification / detail be required Creative Mindset is able to do so upon request.

Psychological Contact

If a client is going through a very difficult psychotic episode or is under the influence of medication, street drugs or alcohol, this might make it difficult for our consultants to work with the child. Our consultants reserve the right to stop a consultation and take appropriate actions as deemed necessary.
