Celebration – Something new that has gone well this year
Click on the PADLET link


PB4L conference - for those that attended, could you please share any key learnings that you would like to implement or want to get the cluster to dig deeper together on. 

Big highlight for me, was meeting a PB4L guru - Doctor Terry Scott


Focus - based on what you identified at the last session -
Teaching procedures – curriculum development
The behaviours in the matrix form the basis of explicit lesson plans. Deliberate acts of teaching are expected by all staff. Consistency in the teaching of social skills from the Matrix is achieved by the team’s development of schedules and system which support teachers’ practise. Lessons are taught within the context that the behaviours occur.
What does this look like in your school?
Why is such a formalised structure developed to explicitly teach behaviours from the matrix?
How do you timetable your lessons to be reactive to data?
How are you communicating with staff around these lessons?
What processes are used to ensure lessons are taught?

Data collection  - within the school
Bring along your behaviour incident data collection forms – this will help to inform what other clusters are doing.
Problem solving around using data to create interventions i.e TIPS.

Thanks Megan at Onehunga Primary for hosting us-
Lovely school and great work implementing PB4L
