\"\"<\/div>\n

Dalyellup College has been working with students, staff and parents to introduce a new Positive Behaviour Support Framework (PBS) similar to a number of other schools around Australia and overseas.\u00a0 PBS focuses on the positive behaviours that we want our students and staff to demonstrate and to encourage students to maintain these positive behaviours, attitudes and expectations.\u00a0 As part of that process the students and staff worked together to identify the key behavioural expectations that captured the culture that we wanted to achieve across the whole school.\u00a0 For Dalyellup College this was captured with these three expectations.
\n
\n <\/p>\n

Be Responsible<\/p>\n

Be Respectful<\/p>\n

Be Your Best<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

We believe that these three expectations capture the positive behaviours that would make our school a safe, friendly and productive learning environment that staff, students and parents would enjoy.\u00a0 The majority of our students over 95% already demonstrate these behaviours all of the time and we want to acknowledge and reward that standard and hopefully increase it even higher.\u00a0 PBS does not replace behaviour management in the school.\u00a0 There are still school rules and consequences for inappropriate behaviour.\u00a0 That hasn\u2019t changed, however PBS allows us to focus more on the positive behaviours that the majority of our students demonstrate.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

How we do that is by teaching these expectations in class and around the school.\u00a0 Students and staff have developed a PBS matrix of expected behaviours under our three key expectations in various settings around the school.\u00a0 These include common expectations that go across the whole school and other more specific behaviours that are found in areas such as the classroom, canteen or play areas.\u00a0 These have been collated into the matrix that all students have a copy of in their diary and have been made into posters around the school.\u00a0 A copy of this matrix has been placed in the newsletter.\u00a0 Parents can use this or a similar matrix around the home.\u00a0 The three key behavioural expectations fit perfectly in the home and family environment.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The process of introducing the PBS initiative has been managed by a committee of volunteer staff since the beginning of 2013 and includes a parent representative in Tanya Price.\u00a0 Thank you to all committee members for their dedication to making this initiative work.\u00a0 They include myself, Tanya Price, Collin Abbott (chairperson), Beth Deeley (secretary), Kerrie Brede, Tania Meintanis, Shahn Paganini, Dharam Apanah, Meryl Crawford, Kevin Biddle, Deb Jolliffe (coach), Natalie Aylmore, Lillian Tan and Rebecca Sanderson.<\/p>\n
