17 Jan PBS – Positive Behaviour System
We use Positive Behaviour Support (PBS) at Pooles Park
What is it?
- Positive behaviour needs to be taught.
- Wherever possible, we discuss it, demonstrate it and praise it.
- We see it as a useful skill for life, not just at school and at home.
- Negative behaviour is a form of communication that disappears when a child is fully understood and supported.
- Punishment and fear are totally inappropriate and prevent children from developing independence.
- Strong relationships between children, adults and parents are key to its success.
Our Three School Values
- Be ready
- Be respectful
- Be responsible
