reflective planning
reflective planning
PB4L school-wide is for everyone - universal strategies. At times, we reflect on what else we can add to our learning spaces to 'paint it green'. This system helps teachers and teams reflect on what they are doing and offers further suggestions to try. Many of the resources behind these links are already being used throughout our kura. This is a reference guide. It is something that will continue to be added to over time.
Behaviour / Communication
Behaviour / Communication
As said on previous pages, behaviour is communication. It can usually be understood as trying to avoid or obtain something e.g. items, attention, or filling a sensory need.
Restorative Practice
Restorative Practice
Restorative Practice is a relational approach to managing school life grounded in beliefs about equality, dignity, mana and the potential of all people. It is about restoring relationships by repairing any harm caused through conflict situations.
At Te Kura o Rātā Templeton School we are using the five stages of restorative practice to help us work through conflict in our school.
These are:
Tell the Story (identify what happened from all involved)
Explore the harm (find out who has been affected and how they are feeling)
Repair the harm (a plan to put things right)
Reach an agreement (what will happen differently in the future and what support is needed to ensure this happens
Planned follow up (check in and an agreement of a consequence if the agreed plan hasn't happened or isn't happening)
Please see an example of the type of script we are using.
Bullying
Bullying
At Te Kura o Rātā Templeton School we have worked as a staff to understand what bullying is, so that we are all on the same page when dealing with any instances that occur at school.
Our agreed definition is as follows:
Intentional targeted behaviour (often repetitive) designed to cause harm. A power imbalance is created which controls how a person is perceived or is able to behave.
Here is a link to Bullyingfree New Zealand which has some excellent resources and information.
