Behaviour Management

The request was successful.

Dear Acland Burghley School, London,

I am doing research on the way different schools handle behaviour. I request for the following information:

- Reasons for Achievement/Behaviour on school systems
(e.g. "Type" on Capita School Management System)

- Any forms associated with rewarding or punishing behaviour
(e.g. request for exclusion, referral forms, etc.)

You are obliged to make a response within 20 days. If you do not respond, I will request an internal review, or make a complaint with the Information Commissioner.

Yours faithfully,

James Thomas

School Business Manager, Acland Burghley School, London
