Behaviour Plan
Our Plan for Positive Student Behaviour outlines our systems for defining and encouraging expected behaviours, preventing unproductive behaviours and responding to unproductive behaviours. The goal of our plan is for every student at High Wycombe Primary School to receive the support needed to learn and maintain positive behaviour. We are guided by the WA Positive Behaviour Support (WAPBS) school framework. Within this framework we are committed to building a continuum of support for staff and students to enable them to positively demonstrate behaviour expectations. All staff will explicitly teach behaviour expectations and look for ways to positively acknowledge behaviour success.
Class Placement Policy
High Wycombe Primary School places students into classes based on the professional judgement of staff, with consideration given to students' academic, social and emotional needs.
