Students are suspended for their behaviour, not their socio-economic status. The risk factors associated with poverty correlate strongly with anti-social behaviour habits. Suspensions are *necessary* when students’ safety and learning is threatened https://t.co/lfFQK9lKVL

7. Disciplined, safe, orderly environments are THE best places for children to learn, be and feel safe, and to minimise stress, bullying, anxiety etc. Children are *more* stressed* by chaotic environments where routines and norms are inconsistent. *Especially* children with SEND

Does any school use the Rewards System app for logging rewards and sanctions? What do you think about it? #edutwitter
