PB4L
The Positive Behavior for Learning (PB4L) Framework focuses on building a positive environment for students and staff by establishing clear expectations for students and taking active, explicit steps in teaching, modelling and reinforcing appropriate behaviours school-wide. The expected behaviours will be reinforced at an individual class and whole school level. Expectations relate to the three school rules: We are respectful, We are responsible, We are lifelong learners.
For further information please refer to our Behaviour Support and Anti-Bullying Guidelines.
