Behaviour Management
In the dark confines of a planetarium it is very easy for student behaviour to deteriorate significantly and this often takes teachers by surprise.
We therefore encourage teachers to emphasises behaviour expectations before the planetarium visit, in harmony with our Audience Code of Conduct.
Below are some useful teacher resources on behaviour management from sector professionals, as well as examples of schools we've visited with outstanding behaviour policies in operation.
