Class behaviour management plan

Our school motto - Teamwork and Tolerance.

In our classroom we foster the following environment:

- the teacher's right to teach and the student's right to learn
- personal accountability and responsible behaviour
- individual responsibility for behaviour choices and the consequences of irresponsible behaviours
- the development of self-worth and self-confidence
- strong student involvement in the processes of their own learning and decision- making
- a commitment to cooperative relationships
- the non-violent resolution of conflict with confidence
- confidence to ask for help if required

In our classroom we incorporate the nine values for Australian schools:

1. Care and compassion
2. Doing your best
3. Fair go
4. Freedom
5. Honesty and trustworthiness
6. Integrity
7. Respect
8. Responsibility
9. Understanding, tolerance and inclusion

Student Management in the classroom:

We use the following to ensure positive behaviour outcomes:

Step 1 - Time out in class.

Student is removed from group but kept within the class space to reflect on positive behaviours and is returned to class after a short period of time.

Step 2 - Time out in another classroom.

Students are sent to another teacher and will reflect on their behaviours and complete a written plan of future positive behaviours.

Step 3 - Time out with executive.

In this step students are required to spend reflection time with a member of the executive team and may be given a recess or lunch time out. Parents may be informed if this stage of undesirable behaviours are exhibited by students.
