S213 Repair & Rebuild

Consistency calibration (shared scripts + thresholds)

Aim (what it achieves)

Reduce teacher-to-teacher variation that drives SEND/PP sanction gaps.

Department/whole-school: when data shows big differences between classrooms.

Agree shared micro-scripts for common issues (start, silence, correction). Do brief coaching drop-ins focused on micro-moves, not blame.

“In this room: silence for instructions.” (common script)

Keep it small (2–3 scripts); revisit each half-term; use supportive coaching.

Turning it into ‘gotcha’; creating huge script lists; ignoring context.

Consistency particularly protects vulnerable pupils who struggle with unpredictability.

Build habits by practising the expected behaviour (rather than only talking about it).

Create shared clarity on what will happen next time, reducing argument and ambiguity for repeat issues.

Re-establish a calm learning climate when one incident has unsettled the whole room.
