NexGen Academy is a school whose aim is to help pupils modify their behaviour to enable them to be successful learners and become young adults able to cope with the demands of life, and contribute well to the community they live in.
Parents and carers have a vital role to play in encouraging good behaviour. For the school policy to be effective, pupils, parents, carers and staff must work together to help ensure that pupils achieve and become successful learners.
NexGen Academy is a nurturing environment and we all work to the 6 principles that underpin the work of nurture groups –
1. Children’s learning is understood developmentally
2. The classroom offers a safe base
3. Nurture is important for the development of self esteem
4. Language is understood as a vital means of communication
5. All behaviour is communication
6. Transitions are significant in the lives of children
