Dryandra Primary School’s Beliefs and Expectations for Behaviour
At Dryandra Primary School we hold the following shared beliefs to help facilitate and encourage positive student behaviour:
Effective Relationships – We believe that effective relationships between people lead to a sense of belonging.
Behaviour is learned – We understand that behaviour is learned and that there are reasons behind them. All behaviours have a function: to get something or avoid something.
Positive behaviour can be taught – New behaviours can be explicitly taught over time.
Behaviour is a shared responsibility – Student behaviour is a responsibility of the home and school. Working together provides the best opportunities for success.
Supportive Environment – A safe, calm and predictable environment provides the best opportunity for optimal behaviour.
