PBISPositive Behavioural Interventions and Supports(Positive Behaviour for Learning) A Snapshot
PBIS - purpose & rationale PBIS is a broad range of systemic and individualized strategies for achieving important social and learning outcomes while preventing problem behaviour. PBIS=PBL=PBS=EBS
Schools want to…. • Improve general classroom & school climate & community relations • Decrease dependence on reactive disciplinary practices • Maximize impact of instruction to affect academic achievement • Improve behavioral supports for students with emotional & behavioral challenges • Improve efficiency of behavior related initiatives
Messages! • Successful Individual student behavior support is linked to host environments or schools that are effective, efficient, relevant, & durable (Zins & Ponti, 1990) • Learning & teaching environments must be redesigned to increase the likelihood of behavioral & academic success
PBIS / PBL • Proactive systems approach to school-wide discipline (NOT a curriculum) designed to be responsive to current social and educational challenges • Focus on prevention • Focus on instruction • Incorporates empirically validated practices
Main Message STUDENT ACHIEVEMENT Good Teaching Behavior Management
Tertiary Prevention: Specialized Individualized Systems for Students with High-Risk Behavior CONTINUUM OF SCHOOL-WIDE INSTRUCTIONAL & POSITIVE BEHAVIOR SUPPORT ~5% Secondary Prevention: Specialized Group Systems for Students with At-Risk Behavior ~15% Primary Prevention: School-/Classroom- Wide Systems for All Students, Staff, & Settings ~80% of Students
Tertiary (FEW) Reduce complications, intensity, severity of current cases Secondary (SOME) Reduce current cases of problem behaviour Primary (ALL) Reduce new cases of problem behaviour 5% 15% 80% of students 3-Tiered prevention logic
Supporting Social Competence & Academic Achievement 4 PBS Elements OUTCOMES Supporting Decision Making Supporting Staff Behavior DATA SYSTEMS PRACTICES Supporting Student Behavior
5% 15% 80% of students What does Primary prevention look like? • >80% of students can tell you what is expected of them. • Positive adult-to-student interactions exceed negative • Data- & team-based action planning & implementation. • Principals are active participants. • Full continuum of behaviour support is available to all students.
Primary prevention-Practices • Focus is on teaching and embedding school wide expectations (universals – few in number). - formal instruction occurs to teach behavioural expectations to all students - curriculum materials developed - collaborative sharing of resources • A training plan/schedule is provided for teachers to follow. • Expectations are posted big and bold throughout the environment.
TEACHING MATRIX Expectations
5% 15% 80% of students What does Secondary and Tertiary prevention look like? • Team-based coordination & problem solving • Local specialised behavioural capacity • Function-based behaviour support planning • Person-centered, contextually & culturally relevant • Regional behavioural capacity • Instructionally oriented • Linked to PBIS practices & systems • School-based comprehensive supports
To Conclude • Create systems-based preventive continuum of behavior support • Focus on adult behavior • Establish behavioral competence • Utilize data based decisions • Give priority to academic success • Invest in evidence-based practices • Teach & acknowledge behavioral expectations • Work from a person-centered, function-based approach • Arrange to work smarter
