The changes we have seen since developing relational practice have been incredible – it is how we all want to be treated, and staff are invigorated to continue our journey.Before we introduced relational practice, the school followed a traditional behaviour policy which used rewards and sanctions. Punishments were given as consequences. The previous Headteacher was very strict, traditional and would frequently shout at pupils and punish them for their behaviour.
