The Behaviour for Learning Policy is the new system started up by Mr Reeves from September 2009. He spent an entire period explaining to everybody how the new system works. Depspite Teachers saying it is the best policy ever it hated by nearly all students that go to BRGS.
Contents
The Book
With the new system, everybody is required to have a book to track merits and penalties, if this is forgotten, a temporary book is used just in case 'The Book' is required because if it is, and you don't have it on you, you get an instant detention. If you lose your book you go to your Head of Year for a new one, and you get a penalty point. 'The Book' has two halves, the front half is merits, the back half is penalties. Unless you are a goody goody in every lesson, you are more likely to have the book signed in the back half. In the first term it was blue and in the second term it was green and laminated so it didn't fall apart. Then it was a vibrant yellow... whatever next? Well, we found out the answer.... another vivid blue!
Ways to get Merit Points
- Good Work
- 3 Good Homeworks...which means we will hardly get any merits now.
- Good Test Score
Commendations
Usually you must gain 5 merits to achieve a commendation but you must gain 10 merits to achieve a commendation in Year 9, 10 and 11.
Ways to get Penalty Points
- Bad Uniform.
- Homework not being handed in.
- Disruptive Behavior.
- Forgetting Equipment.
- Forgetting Exercise Books.
- Losing 'The Book'
- Anything Really
The Levels

Well Known Penalty Point Givers
Mrs Kennedy
Mrs Kennedy, standing at the bottom of a staircase with a pen, or with her door open, ready to attack.
Mrs Heywood
Mrs Heywood, giving out points for the 'fun of it'. She can spot wrong earrings from a mile away.
Mr Reeves
Mr Reeves, it is his system, surely he will be enforcing it, can be known to spot bad uniform quickly so pupils quickly sort their uniform when going past him!
Well Know Merit Point Givers
Miss Strictland
Miss Strickland used to give out merits for simply getting full marks on spelling tests or for completing a 'satisfactory' peice of homework. But now, your lucky if you can get a merit for a 3 A* homeworks.
She once gave a merit each to a 3 pupils in 08G for putting a spider out of the window,one being for opening the window.
Stupid Penalty (And Occasionally Merit) Points
Teachers just give penalties for no reason... some stupid entries into books have been...
- Screaming Like A Banshee (Mohammed Kouta, Sam Kittson-Platt, Uzair Hussain)
- Short Skirt And Handgesture (Rebecca Finley)
- Closing a door (Milton Ashworth, Mohammed Kouta)
- Taking another boys clothes off (Milton Ashworth, Mohammed Kouta and Lewis Wood) (Not as pedophillic as it sounds, Honest)
Once somebody got a merit for 'Silly Behaviour' because when the teacher asked for 'The Book', the person gave her the book but then asked for the inside cover, and accidently gave her the merit bit and she signed it! This happened numerous times in the first few weeks of this new system.
Rewards
If you make the entire term with no penalty points (very few do) then you will get the afternoon off while you do some form of fun activity. In the autumn term of the year 09 and 08 people got to do bowling and laser quest for free! Since then the treats for having no penalty points have got worse and worse. What next?
