Behaviour Code

Why we have a behaviour code 

This code of behaviour is there to make sure everyone who takes part in Sêr Aeron Stars’ activities knows what is expected of them and feels safe, respected and valued.  We expect people who take part in our activities to display appropriate behaviour at all times. This includes behaviour that takes place outside our organisation and behaviour that takes place online.

Sêr Aeron Stars must make sure that everyone taking part in our activities has read, understood and agreed to abide by the Behaviour Code.

What happens if I do not to follow the code of behaviour?

Minor or first-time incident

If you behave in a way that doesn’t follow our behaviour code, our staff or volunteers will remind you about it and ask you to change your behaviour.  This gives you the chance to think and to plan how you could behave differently, with support from staff and/or volunteers.

Formal warning

If you continue not to follow the code of behaviour after your first reminder, or if your behaviour is more serious, you will be given a formal warning by the person running your activity. They will make a record about what happened and inform your parents or carers if it is appropriate. They will also talk with you about what happened and agree what support you need to improve your behaviour in the future. We might also decide that further steps should be taken, such as restricting you from taking part in some activities. 

Final warning

If the support we have put in place isn’t helping you to change your behaviour, we might need to give you a final warning. Again, this will be recorded, and we’ll inform your parents or carers as appropriate. At this point, we might need to talk with you and your parents or carers about other services that might be more able to give you the support you need.

 

Child Protection Procedures

If any member of staff or volunteer becomes concerned that your behaviour suggests you might be in need of protection or that you might present a risk of harm to other children and young people, they will follow our child protection procedures. This might involve making a referral to the local authority. If child protection procedures are necessary, we will talk this through with you and your parents as soon as possible, unless doing so would put you in danger or interfere with a police investigation.

Volunteers are DBS checked and any extra volunteers (during productions, events etc) who are not checked, will never be left alone with a young person(s).
