Behaviour
At Baguley Hall, children learn to respect themselves and each other and to have excellent attitudes to their
learning. Their achievements are recognised with a variety of rewards, these vary, depending on the age of the
children.
Classroom rewards:
All staff have their own favourite motivational systems which may include: verbal praise, peer celebration,
comments to parents, rewards and prizes.
As a school, positive attitudes are recognised:

Your child will receive a smiley face for any behaviour that is worthy of praise.

One of the most important things you can do for your child's future is to make sure they
receive their education.
Attendance at school means that they will be able to achieve the best they can and have
more opportunities open to them. We regularly celebrate our pupils’ good attendance by
recognising their achievements and your hard work with:
Attendance assemblies
Trips and Prizes
Weekly class rewards
Trophies and Medals
Pupils’ attendance at school is recorded every day and monitored regularly. If your child is
between 5 and 16 years of age and is registered at school, it is your legal responsibility to
ensure that they attend regularly and are on time. If school feel that there is no satisfactory
explanation for the absence it will be recorded as unauthorised. If we are concerned about
any unauthorised absences we will want to talk to you about this, to see if we can help to
support your child's attendance, this may include a home visit to see why the child is off
school.
Continued absence will lead to a penalty notice being issued which is a £120 fine per adult in
the household, per child or prosecution which could result in up to a £2500 fine, parenting
order or imprisonment. Please be aware if prosecuted this will entail you receiving a
criminal record, which could affect your future.
School starts at 8.45am (EYFS) or 8.55am (KS1 & KS2)
Your child will receive a late mark if they arrive after the teacher has marked the register.
However if your child arrives 15 minutes after the start of school they will receive a “U”
unauthorised absence. This will affect your child’s attendance percentage.
If your child is late for school by just 10 minutes each day, over the period of the year they will have missed more than 6
school days!
For more information, please see the policy on our Policies’ page.
School Lunches
All Reception, Year 1 and Year 2 children are entitled to a free school lunch. We serve a
choice of hot meals and a packed lunch option every day. The meals are planned to
provide nutritional balance over a two week cycle, (including the occasional treat!).
Cook’s choice
Baked potato
Pasta
Packed Lunch
A healthy balanced diet has been shown to have positive effect on behaviour. It plays a vital
role in growth and development as well as in avoiding obesity, tooth decay, heart disease,
diabetes and cancer. Our school meals contribute to a healthy balanced diet.
For those children in Nursery and Key Stage who are not entitled to free school meals, the
charge for a school lunch is £2.25 per day.
Packed Lunches
We understand that some children do prefer to bring their own packed lunch to school. We
have a National Healthy Schools Award and as part of this we operate a healthy packed
lunch policy. Packed lunched should not include fizzy drinks, chocolate bars, sweets, crisps
or sugary foods. A piece of fruit should always be included.
