Instead, it stands resolutely by the belief that children and young people are capable of understanding why communal rules exist, and it contends that those pupils have the ability to make good choices rather than bad ones. It is a hopeful vision of all pupils realising their potential. It is therefore why we firmly believe that our \u2018no excuses\u2019 discipline has the power to change lives.&#8217;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>An independent report into the high numbers of pupils in Alternative Learning Provision in Bristol back in 2020 noted issues with a Ready to Learn behaviour policy impacting upon Send pupils.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It said: \u2018Whilst some might consider \u2018Ready to Learn\u2019 as a zero-tolerance or no excuses policy its supporters say it does allow for flexibility with some (cohorts of) children,\u2019 the report states. But it also finds that \u2018schools have to take into account disability (discrimination) and equalities factors. Looking at the characteristics of both FTE and PEX pupils this does not always seem to be the case.\u2019<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The school&#8217;s behaviour policy does state that the Individual Pupils Support department (IPS) will &#8216;ensure&#8217; reasonable adjustments for Send pupils. It then describes these reasonable adjustments as things like &#8216;reduced time in the Referral room and regular breaks in the rethink room&#8217;.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The school says that the IPS will meet regularly to discuss students with Send.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/chopsybaby.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/adj.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"891\" height=\"87\" src=\"https:\/\/chopsybaby.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/adj.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-43448\" srcset=\"https:\/\/chopsybaby.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/adj.jpg 891w, https:\/\/chopsybaby.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/adj-300x29.jpg 300w, https:\/\/chopsybaby.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/adj-768x75.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 891px) 100vw, 891px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>But parents have told us off the record that they have had &#8216;big problems&#8217; with the school sanctioning their Send child.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A parent responding to the original video also commented saying: &#8220;I fought about that place for such a long time, the fact they don\u2019t see the issue with it is shocking.

The father told The mirror he believed the real reason was because the pupil struggled with their learning and was &#8216;not expected to excel&#8217; in GCSEs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He described The Lamp as a &#8216;Portakabin classroom&#8217; which has metal bars on the windows and &#8216;resembles a prison.&#8217; <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Former headteacher Mr Schlick, told The Mirror that &#8220;Students return to their regular classes once their behaviour is regarded as acceptable to the school.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Lamp is described by the school as an &#8216;off site provision for students who are struggling to engage effectively with education in our mainstream setting.&#8217;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But the provision is also used as part of the schools behaviour sanctions as a location for internal exclusions. <br><br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"934\" height=\"397\" src=\"https:\/\/chopsybaby.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/internal-exclusions.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-43446\" srcset=\"https:\/\/chopsybaby.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/internal-exclusions.jpg 934w, https:\/\/chopsybaby.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/internal-exclusions-300x128.jpg 300w, https:\/\/chopsybaby.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/internal-exclusions-768x326.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 934px) 100vw, 934px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>During the Covid pandemic, changes were made to the Behaviour Policy meaning students with internal exclusions were forced to be transported to The Lamp by minibus as the provision is not located on the same site. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"827\" height=\"306\" src=\"https:\/\/chopsybaby.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/the-lamp-three.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-43452\" srcset=\"https:\/\/chopsybaby.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/the-lamp-three.jpg 827w, https:\/\/chopsybaby.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/the-lamp-three-300x111.jpg 300w, https:\/\/chopsybaby.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/the-lamp-three-768x284.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 827px) 100vw, 827px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The school is currently recruiting for a Values in Practice Worker based at The Lamp.
