Respectful, safe, engaged: shared expectations to support student behaviour

When schools, families and students work together, we achieve the best outcomes. These partnerships are essential to creating school environments that support all students to belong, learn and thrive. 

At Elsternwick Primary School all students are expected to be respectful, safe, and engaged. These behaviours help make our school a place where everyone can achieve their best.

How parents/carers can help

As a parent/carer, you play a vital role in helping your child to understand and meet shared behaviour expectations.

By modelling and encouraging positive behaviour, you help your child build the skills and habits they need to be successful at school. 

You can see the Respectful, safe, engaged: shared expectations to support student behaviour statement on the department’s website. This outlines the shared expectations and how you can help.
