Positive Behaviour and Learning

Positive Behaviour for Learning (PBL) is implemented to improve the learning and wellbeing of all students in all school settings.


At Westport Public School we deliver excellence in a welcoming, inclusive and caring environment. Our school values ensure that all students and staff are respected, safe and happy. Supportive staff challenge, inspire and promote learning as a lifelong endeavour, where students are provided with opportunities to excel and achieve their full potential as they explore 21st Century initiatives.

Great emphasis is placed upon all students  understanding and displaying our three values, spoken with the script.  Learners who are Respectful and Safe. PBL Matrix      

Our three values are:

· Learners

· Respectful

· Safe

Students participate in weekly lessons where school-wide expectations are taught. When students are observed displaying appropriate school wide expectations, they are rewarded in a variety of ways. 

Students can be awarded with dolphin points, house points, merit certificates and presentation awards. Each week Dolphin Points are drawn and those students spin the 'Wheel of Wonder' and win an amazing prize. The more dolphin points a student earns, the greater their chance in the draw.
