Positive Behaviour Support (PBS)

PBS is our school-wide approach aimed at improving the academic and behavioural outcomes of all students. PBS works to establish a climate in which appropriate behaviour is the norm. This occurs through the use of proactive strategies and the explicit teaching of behavioural expectations. Our goal is to create a safe, positive learning environment where students are engaged and successful. Emphasis is on making positive choices and accepting responsibility for both learning and behaviour, rather than being structured around a set of rules.

​

At East Butler, our core expectations are: 

​

• Navigate Learning

• Embrace Resilience 

• Show Respect 

• Work Responsibly 

​

Each week our students are explicitly taught these values through classroom-based activities and they are continuously encouraged to actively demonstrate behaviours derived from these values in the classroom, during break-times and as wider community members.

​

Students are awarded Tweet Awards for the demonstration of our expected behaviours and are awarded with tiered rewards.
