RP Buddies
As part of our commitment to being a restorative school, we have established a group of children to work as ‘RP Buddies’ around school. These children undertook extensive training, with one of our HCAT Restorative Practice Leaders. They complete their duties during play and lunchtimes, these duties include:
- Ensure all children have someone to play with.
- Promote and model restorative behaviours.
- Solve disagreements between children.
These children also act as role models for the school at all times and have a specific role in identifying and training the RP leaders of the future.
We have recently split the role of a buddy further so that more children are able to grow and develop as leaders during less structured times of the day.
Year 6 are currently being trained as Level 1 Sports Leaders, with a focus on broadening their understanding of leading activities for younger age groups in their school and and creating inclusive games for other children to play.
I have had a lovely afternoon hearing the Year 1 children read so thank you. I was so impressed with the calmness and maturity of the children.
Pupils feel safe and cared
for in the school. Parents agree.
The teachers are always looking out for the children and they are nice to the children.
Pupils’ behaviour and attitudes are excellent. They are respectful, considerate and polite. Pupils are incredibly thoughtful and look after one another
My child loves the school and enjoys her time here.
I would like to express my gratitude to the extent the school supports the festival of Eid Ul Adha. Not only by allowing the children a day to celebrate with their families but also by celebrating these events in the school as well.
Thank you so much, our child couldn’t be happier.
We are very happy with the school and our child’s progress.
Pupils work hard to be positive role models and give support to others. They are
very proud of the work they do as restorative practitioners, play buddies and wellbeing ambassadors. This is a highly inclusive school.
I have full faith in Mrs Clarkson and her wonderful team. They have bent over backwards over the past year to make sure my daughter has an education and I know they will continue to do so. They are amazing and I am so great full for their support for my child throughout the lockdowns. They have exceeded my expectations as they always go the extra mile.
Pearson Primary School has gone above and beyond the realms of every day teaching and learning in this challenging year. Thank you to the wonderful staff for all they do, both seen and unseen. Our child is happy, inspired, challenged, supported and making progress – what more could we ask for?
