Positive Behaviour for Learning, known as PBL is an evidence-based whole school systems approach that:
*addresses the diverse academic and social needs of every student to support them to be successful
*supports students in early childhood settings through to senior years of schooling
*enables schools to establish a continuum of supports that are intensified to meet the needs of every student
*is team driven, using a problem solving approach (data, systems and practices) that engages students, parents and all school staff
*establishes positive social expectations for all in the school community
*provides a framework for the school and its community to collectively support the wellbeing of every student.
When implemented well:
*students respond positively as they have been taught what is expected of them
*staff deliver consistent responses to student learning and behaviour
*students feel safe and cared for at school. Their parents, family and community are more involved in their school
*unproductive and challenging behaviour can be significantly reduced for most students
