Our Behaviour Curriculum 

At St Joseph’s Primary and Nursery School we develop children’s character through our behaviour curriculum which is rooted in Christ’s teaching and based on Gospel Virtues. In order to build character, we define the behaviours and habits that we expect students to demonstrate at all times. We want to support our pupils to grow into adults who are polite, respectful, grateful, kind, responsible and who always consider others. We believe that as pupils practise these behaviours, over time they become automatic routines that positively shape how they feel about themselves and how other people perceive them. Overtime, these form part of each child’s character so that they demonstrate the virtues in all areas of their lives.
