School Behaviour Support and Management Plan
Georges River College Peakhurst Campus (GRC Peakhurst Campus) is committed to creating a safe, caring and effective learning environment for its students. We focus on explicitly teaching and modelling positive behaviour and supporting all students to be engaged in their learning. Our goal is to inspire every child to participate positively in society. We focus on promoting excellence, opportunity and success for every student, every day. We value and strive to develop safe, respectful learners in a caring learning community. Students are nurtured and supported as they learn and develop into responsible young citizens. The principles of positive behaviour support, trauma-informed practice, inclusive practice, and social and emotional learning underpin our daily practice. High expectations for student behaviour are established and maintained through effective role modelling, explicit teaching, and planned responses. Our processes are founded on the idea that students must learn to take responsibility for their own actions and to ensure all staff respond to these challenges consistently to support students to acknowledge harm and learn from their behaviour. The aim of our School Behaviour Support and Management Plan (SBSMP) is to support students in their overall learning and development and in becoming self-directed, life-long learners. By becoming active participants in their own long-term social and ethical development, students can create a positive future for themselves and for the wider school community. To achieve our mission, key approaches and programs prioritised and valued by the school community are:
• Positive, safe and supportive learning culture
• Trauma Informed Practice
• Student Wellbeing Initiatives
These programs and initiatives prioritise social and emotional learning which supports good mental health, positive relationships and prevention of bullying. A positive, safe and supportive learning culture encourages behaviour that is inclusive and respectful.
