It focuses on leadership, consistency,\r\n              learning-focused routines, explicitly taught learning behaviours, proactive classroom practice, fair responses,\r\n              and sustained professional learning.\r\n            <\/p>\r\n          <\/div>\r\n        <\/details>\r\n\r\n        <details class=\"faq\">\r\n          <summary>\r\n            <span>Is this a behaviour policy or a sanctions system?<\/span>\r\n            <span class=\"faq-icon\" aria-hidden=\"true\">+<\/span>\r\n          <\/summary>\r\n          <div class=\"faq-answer\">\r\n            <p>\r\n              No. This is not a sanctions system or a behaviour policy template. It is a climate framework: it explains how\r\n              routines, consistency, teaching practice and fair responses combine to protect learning time and pupil dignity.\r\n            <\/p>\r\n          <\/div>\r\n        <\/details>\r\n\r\n        <details class=\"faq\">\r\n          <summary>\r\n            <span>Is the framework a checklist or a sequence of steps?<\/span>\r\n            <span class=\"faq-icon\" aria-hidden=\"true\">+<\/span>\r\n          <\/summary>\r\n          <div class=\"faq-answer\">\r\n            <p>\r\n              No. The foundations are interdependent and are not implemented in a fixed order. Schools strengthen climate by aligning\r\n              leadership responsibility, learning structures, and everyday classroom practice rather than completing foundations one at a time.\r\n            <\/p>\r\n          <\/div>\r\n        <\/details>\r\n\r\n        <details class=\"faq\">\r\n          <summary>\r\n            <span>Why does consistency matter for a climate for learning?<\/span>\r\n            <span class=\"faq-icon\" aria-hidden=\"true\">+<\/span>\r\n          <\/summary>\r\n          <div class=\"faq-answer\">\r\n            <p>\r\n              Consistency creates safety, fairness and focus. When expectations and adult responses are predictable, pupils spend less energy\r\n              negotiating boundaries and more attention on learning. Consistency also protects teachers by reducing conflict and uncertainty.\r\n            <\/p>\r\n          <\/div>\r\n        <\/details>\r\n\r\n        <details class=\"faq\">\r\n          <summary>\r\n            <span>How does this connect to the wider EBTD ecosystem?<\/span>\r\n            <span class=\"faq-icon\" aria-hidden=\"true\">+<\/span>\r\n          <\/summary>\r\n          <div class=\"faq-answer\">\r\n            <p>\r\n              The Climate for Learning Foundations describe the conditions pupils need.
