Food:
Drinks are essential, snacks can be eaten on the premises but no nuts.
Uniform:
This is basic but essential and gives the students a sense of belonging, a sense of ritual and sense of dressing for something important – their class. Appropriate clothing as below is necessary for health and safety and child protection:
Students must not wear their school uniform to any class – Sazonova Dance and Fitness Studio is not a school and wearing the correct Sazonova Dance and Fitness Studio clothing gives a sense of belonging, allowing all to feel equal, healthy and safe.

· Uniform must be purchased within four weeks of joining the class- a full uniform list can be provided via email upon your request
Attendance:
Children must arrive and be collected promptly. It is very important that children arrive in time for their classes, preferably 5 minutes before the start. This allows the group time to settle from the moment the class starts. Latecomers will have to wait outside until an appropriate time to join the class. Children arriving after 15 minutes may be refused admission, as this may disrupt the professional attitude to classes we aim to foster.
Where possible Sazonova Dance and Fitness Studio will aim to let people know of any changes in venue or class time at least one week ahead of schedule.
Attending other dance schools
Due to conflict of interest and different teaching methods, we do not allow students to study the same dance genres offered at Sazonova dance, at a different dance school. Other genres are perfectly acceptable and encouraged.
Absence:
Any child missing for more than two classes per term without reason may not be able to join future courses. Class numbers are limited, and many have waiting lists, so good attendance and commitment to the course is essential.
Parents/guardians must inform Principal of any absences, scheduled or illness.
Illness/Injury:
Parents are not to allow their child to attend class if they are feeling unwell or have a known injury which would prevent a student from fully taking part.

Child dropping off:
It is the parent/ guardians responsibility to look after child whilst waiting for class to start. It is their responsibility to ensure that child comes in to the class. Whilst in the reception or waiting room the child is your responsibility. Once inside the actual studio area, the duty of care is passed over to teacher.
Children riding or walking to studio:
We need to be informed via the tickbox if you give permission for child to make their own way to and from the studio

· Inform the Principal who will contact the parent/guardian.
· If the Principal is not available, contact the staff member
· If the office is closed, ask the child to contact the parent/guardian immediately.

At Sazonova Dance and Fitness Studios we create a positive learning environment that ensures our approach to behaviour management and discipline is consistent and understood by all staff, students and parents.
The clear majority of the Sazonova Dance and Fitness Studios’ community demonstrate the values which we want to promote to our students. We have an “open door” policy because we value the interaction between staff and the families of our students. It is an important part of our ethos; it helps us to get to know our students and, therefore, enable them to make the best possible progress in all respects. This is, however, a privilege.
Sadly, there are a very few occasions where adults do not behave as we would like and Sazonova Dance and Fitness Studios has been encouraged to consider what to do in the situation where unsatisfactory behaviour arises.
Distribution:
· To all volunteers and staff
· This policy will be made available to members of the public on request
Review and monitoring of policy:
· Reviewed annually or in instances of legislative change
· Monitoring is part of Management and Supervision
The following policy is based on the below principles:
· All members of the Sazonova Dance and Fitness Studios community have a right to expect that they learn and learn in a safe place.
· Sazonova Dance and Fitness Studios expects every member of its community to behave in a considerate way towards others.
· Sazonova Dance and Fitness Studios expects every member of its community to be committed to safeguarding and child protection and would not knowingly ever want to harm a young person in any way.
· There will be a zero tolerance of violence, threatening behaviour, and disorderly conduct, including abuse in all forms, against Sazonova Dance and Fitness Studios staff or other members of the Sazonova Dance and Fitness Studios community.
· Where such behaviour does occur, action will be taken to deal with the person or persons concerned.
What do we mean by Abusive or Threatening Behaviour?
The Public Order Act 1986 defines “disorderly conduct” as: verbal abuse, threatening abusive or insulting words or behaviour or any disorderly behaviour whereby a person is caused alarm, harassment or distress.
“Threatening behaviour” is when a person fears that violence or threat of violence is likely to be provoked. In a Sazonova Dance and Fitness Studios context, this could mean someone shouting at a member of staff, either in person or on the phone; acting aggressively, including using intimidating body language, as well as actual violence. It also covers comments posted on social networking sites or situations where members of staff are approached off premises.
Parents’ Code of Conduct
Sazonova Dance and Fitness Studios has a code of conduct for parents. The purpose is to provide a reminder to all parents, carers and visitors about the expected conduct. This is so we can continue to flourish, progress and achieve in an atmosphere of mutual understanding.
Sazonova Dance and Fitness Studios expects parents and carers to:
· Respect the caring ethos
· Understand that parents and tutors need to work together for the benefit of children
· Demonstrate in their own behaviour that all members of the community should be treated with respect
· Seek to clarify a child’s version of events with the Principal’s view in order to bring about a peaceful solution to any issue
· Correct their own child’s behaviour, especially where it could lead to conflict
· Approach Sazonova Dance and Fitness Studios staff to help resolve issues.
· Avoid using staff as threats to admonish children
In order to support a peaceful and safe learning environment, Sazonova Dance and Fitness Studios does not tolerate:
· Disruptive behaviour which interferes or threatens to interfere with the operation of a class, office or other area of grounds
· Loud or offensive language, swearing, cursing or displaying temper
· Threating to do actual bodily harm to a member of Sazonova Dance and Fitness Studios staff, visitor, parent/carer or student.
· Damaging or destroying Sazonova Dance and Fitness Studios’ property
· Sending abusive or threatening emails, text/voicemail/phone messages or other written communication
· Defamatory, offensive or derogatory comments regarding Sazonova Dance and Fitness Studios or any of the pupils/parents/staff at Sazonova Dance and Fitness Studios on Facebook or other social media sites
· The use of physical aggression towards another adult or child. This includes physically punishing your own child on school premises
· Chastising someone else’s child
· Smoking, or consuming alcohol or drugs whilst on school property
If any of these behaviours occur, Sazonova Dance and Fitness Studios may contact the appropriate authorities and, if necessary, ban the offending adult from entering school grounds or office.
Action to be taken if an incident occurs:
If an incident involving threatening behaviour or abuse does occur then an incident report form will be completed by the member of the school community against whom the abuse was directed. In the case of this being a student, a member of staff may complete the form on their behalf.
Step 1 - Verbal Warning
The Principal will speak to the person or persons perpetrating such an incident privately. It will be put to them that such behaviour is unacceptable and an assurance will be sought that such an incident will not be repeated. It will be stressed on this occasion that repetition of such an incident will result in further more serious action being taken.
Step 2 – Written warning
If a second incident occurs involving the same person or persons, the Principal will write to the adult(s) informing them once again that this conduct is unacceptable.
Please Note:
Any incidents of violent conduct would immediately proceed to step 5. At any stage, the school may report serious incidents of abusive and threatening behaviour to the Local Authority. The school has a statutory responsibility to report any racist or discriminatory incidents to the Local Authority (See Equality Policy). Any act of actual or threatened violence will be referred to the police immediately.
Any sign of a potential Child Protection or Safeguarding issue will be dealt with as per Sazonova Dance and Fitness Studios’ Child Protection & Safeguarding policy.
Step 3 – Involvement of the police
Student and parent expelled- following a decision to ban a person from the premises, that person nevertheless persists in entering school premises and is displaying unreasonable behaviour, such a person may be removed from the school premises as a trespasser under Section 547 of the Education Act 1996 and charged with an offence under the Public Order Act 1986.
Other members of the public have no right of access to the school premises.

We firmly believe that the best way to ensure high standards of discipline is to recognise achievement and celebrate success. To support this, we believe that Sazonova Dance and Fitness Studios needs a system of rewards for good and improving behaviour and sanctions where standards fall below our expectations. These rewards and sanctions must be applied consistently and fairly.
Main Aims for the policy:

· To ensure we promote and develop good behaviour

each other, work together and learn well

What do we mean by Abusive or Threatening Behaviour?
The Public Order Act 1986 defines “disorderly conduct” as: verbal abuse, threatening abusive or insulting words or behaviour or any disorderly behaviour whereby a person is caused alarm, harassment or distress.
“Threatening behaviour” is when a person fears that violence or threat of violence is likely to be provoked. In a Sazonova Dance and Fitness Studios context, this could mean a child shouting at a member of staff, either in person or on the phone, acting aggressively towards staff or other students, including using intimidating body language, as well as actual violence. It also covers comments posted on social networking sites or situations where members of staff are approached off premises.
Expectations:
We believe that good behaviour is essential to enable all our pupils to achieve their full potential. Good behaviour promotes effective learning; effective teaching and learning promotes good behaviour.
No student will be allowed to behave in a manner which adversely affects the learning opportunities of others.
We believe it is important for children to be aware of their behaviour and its impact on others. Pupils need to take responsibility for their behaviour and be actively involved in finding solutions.
The school has a set of golden rules of behaviour which are aimed at promoting respect, honesty and good relationships, so that people can work together in a supportive atmosphere with the common purpose of helping everyone to learn, to be creative, to grow emotionally and physically and to be happy.
Do be gentle Do not hurt anyone
Do be kind and helpful Do not hurt people's feelings.
Do work hard Do not waste your and other people's time.
Do look after property Do not waste or damage things.
Do listen to people Do not interrupt.
Do be honest Do not cover up the truth.
Sazonova Dance and Fitness Studios expects every member of the school community to behave in a considerate way towards others. Central to this is choice: we refer to good choices and bad choices. By using the language of choice, we:
· promote self-management of behaviour and enable some reflection on what behavioural choices exist;
· avoid labelling children – instead we refer to the choices we all make and that we should always try to make good choices.
Praise is key to nurturing motivated, engaged children who make good choices and consequently build positive relationships. Throughout school, we aim to ‘catch’ good behaviour.
Children are encouraged to make good choices at all times. They will be supported to:
· follow the golden rules
· understand what good behaviour means
· be aware of their behaviour and its’ impact on others
· take responsibility for their actions
· learn to care for themselves and each other
Staff Will:
· Ensure all children are clear about our expectations of behaviour at the beginning of the term and remind them during classes
· Treat each child fairly, with respect and understanding
· Regularly discuss the golden rules and remind children of Sazonova Dance and Fitness Studios expectations.
· Plan quality learning tasks which engage and motivate learners
· Praise good choices, behaviour and achievements
· Ensure they are fully familiar with the children’s needs and make every effort to be positive, motivational and inspiring – thus minimising the risk of poor behaviour during lessons
· Follow the guidance in the disciplinary policy in a fair and honest way
· Use Sazonova Dance and Fitness Studios’ guidance to ensure they are consistent when deciding on consequences.
· Keep a record and relevant notes on any misbehaviour
· Keep parents/carers informed about their child’s behaviour and relationships
· Ensure the health, safety and welfare of all children
We expect parents and carers to:
· Be aware of Sazonova Dance and Fitness Studios’ expectations of behaviour.
· Celebrate their child’s achievements and show an interest in their Sazonova Dance and Fitness Studios’ classes.
· Ensure that children arrive at Sazonova Dance and Fitness Studios on time.
· Work with Sazonova Dance and Fitness Studios to model high expectations of behaviour.
· Work with Sazonova Dance and Fitness Studios] to support us in improving children’s behaviour.
· Act promptly at the request of [Sazonova Dance and Fitness Studios in the instance of a discipline problem

Bullying/Violence:
Sazonova Dance and Fitness Studios has a zero-tolerance bullying and violence policy.
Students who bully other members of the Sazonova Dance and Fitness Studios community and/or use physical violence will have their membership revoked and they will be asked to leave.
Bullying is unacceptable behaviour used by an individual or group, usually repeated over time, that intentionally hurts another individual or group either physically or emotionally.
Bullying can be:
· Emotional - being unfriendly, excluding, tormenting (e.g. hiding property, threatening gestures)
· Physical - pushing, kicking, biting, hitting, punching or any use of violence
· Racial - racial taunts, graffiti, gestures etc.
· Homophobic - because of, or focussing on the issue of sexuality
· Sexual - unwanted physical contact or sexually abusive comments
· Verbal - name-calling, sarcasm, spreading rumours, teasing etc.
· Cyber - All areas of internet, such as email and internet chat, Twitter, Facebook misuse etc. Mobile threats by text messaging and calls, Misuse of associated technology, i.e. camera and video facilities, Ipad, games consoles etc.
Bullying may be related to:
· Race
· Gender
· Religion
· Culture
· SEN or disability
· Appearance or health condition

· Sexual orientation, sexism, or sexual bullying, homophobia
Bullying can take place in the classroom, playground, toilets, to and from [COMPANY NAME], on trips and cyberspace. It can take place in group activities and between families in the local community.
Students must not hesitate to report bullying to any adult on site. Volunteers and staff will help any student/family who are the victim of any of these behaviours. Staff will investigate any allegation of bullying, which may result in any perpetrator being asked to leave.
Staff remain vigilant about bullying behaviours and approach this in the same way as any other category of Child Abuse; that is, do not wait to be told before you raise concerns or deal directly with the matter. Children may not be aware that they are being bullied; because they may be too young or have a level of Special Educational Needs which means that they may be unable to realise what others may be doing to them.
The ethos and working philosophy of Sazonova Dance and Fitness Studios means that all staff actively encourage children to have respect for each other and for other people’s property. Good and kind/polite behaviour is regularly acknowledged and rewarded.
Peer on Peer Abuse:
Bullying and violence is not the only form of peer on peer abuse Sazonova Dance and Fitness Studios students may experience, both at Sazonova Dance and Fitness Studios or in the wider community. Any form of peer-on-peer abuse will result in the perpetrator being asked to leave Sazonova Dance and Fitness Studios and may result in legal, criminal or social investigation.
Examples of peer on peer abuse may include, but are not limited to:
· Physical abuse e.g. (biting, hitting, kicking, hair pulling etc.)

For full information, we have the following policies in place that should be read in conjunction with this section:
· Child Protection and Safeguarding
Special Needs:
Whilst every effort is made to ensure our procedures support children to make good choices, we know that some children have additional needs. When this happens, we will work closely with parents/carers to provide additional interventions which may include:
· Establishing an individual behaviour plan
· Support from the parents
Sazonova Dance and Fitness Studios] is unable to provide 1-to-1 support, which is made clear to any parent at the time of booking should they disclose additional needs information to us.
Sazonova Dance and Fitness Studios will do everything within our power to integrate children with additional needs into our classes, however should behaviour become disruptive in any way, Sazonova Dance and Fitness Studios must reserve the right to ask children to rescind membership.
Managing Behavioural Challenges:
Sazonova Dance and Fitness Studios is an extra-curricular activity, and as such we expect that students want to attend classes. Behavioural difficulties are rare, but Sazonova Dance and Fitness Studios sometimes does have to manage situations.
Staff are instructed to never demean or undermine pupils, their parents or carers, or colleagues. Staff must also never raise their voice beyond what is appropriate and must never lose their temper.
Staff are expected to consult with the most senior staff member before initiating any type of disciplinary measures.
Examples of appropriate disciplinary techniques:

Setting clear objectives and behavioural expectations
Rewarding good, positive behaviour (praise and Sazonova Dance and Fitness Studios also allow stickers)
