Positive Behaviour (PB)

PB is the behaviour system used at Bedale High School.

PB is our version of a behaviour system that is used successfully across schools in all corners of the country. At its heart is praise. PB seeks to recognise and respond to effort, engagement, hard work, commitment, and kindness. PB is not about purely recognising the ‘right answer’, it is about encouraging positive contributions from all young people both in their lessons, and around school. PB supports students in living up to the values of our school, Courage, Commitment, and Compassion.

Of course, as with all behaviour policies, PB also seeks to provide a consistent and fair approach to any instances where young people break school rules. PB encourages students to self-regulate their behaviour and make positive choices.
