As a Positive Behaviour for Learning (PBL) school, Moore Park Beach State School has three main rules/ expectations. They are:
Respect
Safety
Responsibility
These are reinforced through our ‘Flipper’ logo which is placed in every room, eating area and main meeting areas throughout our school. All behaviour is reinforced through direct reference to these three rules and our Flipper Logo. Staff discuss these rules, explicitly teach them and model them in their daily interactions with students.
When staff recognise students making positive behaviour choices that reflect our school rules they will receive a ‘Flipper’. These accumulate over time and are used for individual and class rewards and incentives.
Minor and Major behaviour concerns are referred to Admin for a conference and for consequences to be applied. This referral system allows us to identify any potential patterns, recurring issues and develop specific support.
Why is PBL important? Positive behaviour is vital in order to maintain a safe and engaging educational environment where students and staff feel valued and respected and reach their full potential.
More information can be found in our PBL brochure (PDF 349Kb) .
Moore Park Beach State School has a Student Code of Conduct for students which is based on PBL.
Moore Park Beach State School is committed to providing a safe, respectful and disciplined learning environment for students and staff, where students have opportunities to engage in quality learning experiences and acquire values supportive of their lifelong wellbeing.
This Responsible Behaviour Plan for students is designed to facilitate high standards of behaviour so that the learning and teaching in our school can be effective and students can participate positively within our school community.
Our Responsible Behaviour Plan outlines our system for facilitating positive behaviours, preventing problem behaviour and responding to unacceptable behaviours. Through our school plan, shared expectations for student behaviour are plain to everyone, assisting Moore Park Beach State School to create and maintain a positive and productive learning and teaching environment.
