Positive Behaviour in Schools

Our vision is to create excellence together with every student through the provision of a high-quality education in a safe and inclusive learning community. Students are equipped with the skills and understandings to become engaged resilient, life-long learners and active global citizens in the 21st century.

As a result, Rapids Landing Primary School develops a safe and positive learning environment through the implementation of whole school processes for the effective management of student behaviour.

Rapids Landing Primary School uses approaches which:

are preventative,
promote positive behaviour, student wellbeing and the development of self-regulation,
focus on early intervention, and
clearly outline procedures for the management of ongoing or serious misbehaviour.
