What is PB4L?
The acronym PB4L stands for Positive Behaviour for Learning. It is a school wide integrated initiative which aims to promote appropriate behaviour in a positive manner that is non-threatening and supportive of all students and staff. It is intended to minimise problematic behaviours while maximising and celebrating positive social and academic student behaviours.
