• individual children are not a ‘problem’ – we need to change the environment around them to support. positive behaviour

​

• punishing and isolating children doesn’t bring about long-term and sustainable changes in behaviour.

• there are no quick fixes. Behaviour change takes time.

This is a long-term approach that supports schools to create a culture where positive behaviour and learning thrive. Students are taught in very specific terms what behaviours are expected of them and there is a consistent response to these behaviours across the school based on our schools values of Pride, Positivity, Respect and Integrity.
