Vision & Values- The Wanneroo Way
The Wanneroo Way.
Positive Behaviour Support Programme.
Positive Behaviour Support (PBS) is an endorsed framework by the WA Education Department, designed to encourage and uphold positive behaviour choices within schools. It relies on a three-tiered model utilizing preventive, instructional, and reinforcement strategies to effectively prevent and diminish challenging behaviours. PBS aims to yield meaningful and lasting outcomes such as: academic performance fostering a positive school image within the community ensuring consistent behaviour management refining behaviour instruction and management methods maximizing teaching time fostering a positive school environment. This approach also emphasizes the importance of clear and explicit behaviour expectations for all students while ensuring they are explicitly taught these expected behaviours.
“The Wanneroo Way” is Wanneroo Secondary Colleges PBS Framework. We at Wanneroo Secondary College strongly believe in the importance of students engaging in their learning and displaying the appropriate behaviours that will enable them to achieve success.
The Wanneroo Secondary College’s PBS Core Statement is:
“S.T.A.R is Wanneroo Secondary College’s Positive Behaviour Support model. Our purpose is to collaborate with the school community to maintain a positive and safe school culture. This program aims to teach pro-social behaviours to support an inclusive college. We know that when good behaviour and quality teaching come together, it empowers our students to “Star” in their learning.”
Wanneroo Secondary College recognises that you, as parents, are the most powerful educative influence in the life of your child. The home and school are complementary forces in the child’s education and therefore parental involvement and interest at all levels is encouraged and appreciated.
Our website provides important information about the operation of the College and outlines the policies and regulations that we as students, teacher and parents will adhere to.
