School-wide PBIS is a multi-tiered framework to make schools more effective places.
It establishes a social culture and implements behaviour supports needed to improve social, emotional, behavioural, and academic outcomes for all students. PBIS is flexible enough to support school, student, family, and community needs.
The pursuit of quality education is based upon the human dignity of each person. The effective implementation of behavioural management practices at St Joseph’s should occur because of its Catholic Ethos and be in line with our School-wide Positive Behaviour Intervention and Support Framework. We acknowledge the necessity of creating an environment which is conducive to promoting the social and emotional wellbeing of the whole school community.
PBIS is an evidence based practice that enhances the capacity of schools to educate all students, especially children with challenging behaviours. It is a proactive system approach to school wide discipline that responds to the current social and / or educational challenges through three levels of intervention
Children at St Joseph’s are taught to be SAFE, RESPECTFUL and RESPONSIBLE always and in all areas of the school and when in public.
