Behaviour & Discipline

How one behaviour ledger serves the whole school — points awarded in class, the office’s incident and detention registers, and the same record on the student and parent portals.

Behaviour & Discipline

From a point in class to the record at home

Follow one school’s behaviour culture through the platform. A teacher recognises effort (or logs a lapse) in seconds; every award lands in one ledger the office can read at a glance; serious matters become incidents with actions and appeals; detentions are scheduled, supervised and tracked; and the student and their parents see the same points, badges and notices the moment they exist. Every screen below is the real application, live with sample school data.

Step 1 · Teacher

Points, awarded in the moment

Behaviour systems only work when recording takes seconds. From the Behaviour & Discipline tab in the teaching workspace, a teacher awards positive or negative points mid-lesson — one student or a whole group — against the categories the school defined.

1

Quick Award

The whole class is one search away. The teacher picks a pupil (or several), taps a category — Helping Others, Late To Class — and the points are on the record before the lesson moves on. Each pupil’s running total sits right on the list.

Search or scroll the class list, with each pupil’s net points in view
Award one student, or select many and award in bulk
Categories carry their own default points — positive or negative
Add an optional note and lesson context to any award
2

The student’s story, one click away

Before awarding — or when a pattern needs a conversation — the teacher opens the pupil’s behaviour profile: totals, badges, and every event with who awarded it and why.

Step 2 · School office

The whole school’s behaviour, at a glance

Every award from every classroom lands in one ledger. The office reads the school’s pulse from it — today’s activity, the fortnight’s trend, which categories staff actually use — and keeps the vocabulary itself under its control.

1

The behaviour dashboard

Today’s, this week’s and this month’s points, the positive-versus-negative trend, the top categories and the latest events — with a quick-award of its own for the office’s spot recognitions.

The leaderboard

Net points rank the school’s pupils — the healthy-competition layer that makes points mean something at assembly. Filter to positive-only when the display board goes up.

The vocabulary is yours

Categories — what can be awarded, how many points it carries, and whether it is positive or negative — are defined here, not hard-coded. The quick-award grids every teacher sees are built from this list.

Step 3 · School office

When it’s more than points

Some things are not a −3. Discipline incidents get their own register: typed, dated, located, tracked through investigation to resolution, with sanctions recorded against them and a formal appeal path.

1

The incident register

Every incident in one filterable log — who, what, where, how severe, and where it stands. The dashboard above it keeps the open count and the severity mix honest.

Log incidents against the school’s discipline types
Severity from minor to critical; status from investigating to closed
Actions and sanctions recorded per incident
Appeals tracked with their outcome
Step 4 · School office

Detentions that actually happen

A sanction that nobody tracks is a sanction that didn’t happen. The detention register schedules each one — break-time, lunchtime, after school or Saturday — assigns a supervisor, notifies the family, and records whether the student showed up.

1

The detention register

Today’s roster and the week ahead, with outstanding, completed and no-show counts on top. Each detention carries its reason, room, supervisor and attendance outcome.

Issue detentions individually or in bulk, optionally from an incident
Supervisor, location, date and time on every entry
Attendance marked present, late, absent or excused
Parents notified automatically; no-shows surface immediately
Step 5 · Student

The student sees the same ledger

The same record, from the student’s side: their points and badges as motivation, a rewards store their positive points can actually buy, and any detention notice with an acknowledge button — no ambush, no rumour.

1

My behaviour

The student’s own tally — positive, negative and net — with the badges they’ve earned and every recent event, including who awarded it and the note they left.

Net points and the positive/negative split
Badges earned, with the next tier in sight
Recent awards with category, teacher and note
2

Spend the points

Points buy real things — a homework pass, a tuck-shop voucher, front of the lunch queue. The student redeems from their balance and watches the request move from pending to fulfilled.

3

My detention notices

Upcoming and past detentions, each with its reason, room and time — and an acknowledge action so the school knows the student has seen it.

Past outcomes — completed, cancelled or missed
One-tap acknowledgement
Step 6 · Parent

Parents see it the day it happens

No end-of-term surprises. The parent portal mirrors the ward’s behaviour record — the praise as well as the lapses — and puts detention notices in front of the family with an acknowledgement the school can see.

1

The ward’s behaviour record

The parent sees the same totals, badges and recent events the student does — so a “what happened at school today?” conversation starts from facts.

2

Detention notices, acknowledged

A scheduled detention appears at home the moment it is issued — reason, date, time and room — with an acknowledge action, so “I didn’t know” never reaches the front office again.
