PBL - What does it mean? 

At Our Lady of Fatima Catholic Primary School, we are committed to implementing a whole-school Positive Behaviour for Learning (PBL) approach to the teaching and management of student behaviour. 

PBL approach means that we: 

• use DATA to track progress and identify areas for intervention; 

• use school-wide EXPECTATIONS and RULES in specific settings to EXPLICITLY TEACH appropriate behaviour; 

• use a POSITIVE INCENTIVE program to encourage appropriate behaviour and 

• use EFFECTIVE CONSEQUENCES to discourage inappropriate behaviour. 

Our school community has identified the following school rules to teach and promote our high standards of responsible behaviour:

Our Lady of Fatima Catholic Primary School uses a three-tiered approach to facilitating standards of positive behaviour and responding to unacceptable behaviour, through the provision of universal, targeted and intensive support.  

OLF PBL Incentive Program

Our school-wide Incentive Program is expected to increase positive behaviour in classrooms and playgrounds.

When children consistently follow class/playground rules and try his/her best, they are awarded a Mercy Token.

Bronze PBL Awards

Once the child has received 40 Mercy Tokens (from the classroom and/or playground), they will be awarded a Bronze PBL Award.

Silver PBL Awards 

When a child has earned 70 Mercy Tokens (from the classroom and/or playground) they will be presented with a Silver PBL Award. 

Gold PBL Awards 

Students who continually do the right thing in the classroom and/or the playground and earn 100 Mercy Tokens join Mrs Clay for a Morning Tea at the end of each term.

Platinum PBL Awards are presented to students who earn 150 Mercy Tokens. These students will also be presented with an OLF PBL School Medallion.

Titanium PBL Awards are presented to students who earn 200 Mercy Tokens. These students will be presented with an OLF PBL School Trophy.

Rhodium PBL are presented to students who earn 300 Mercy Tokens.  These students will be presented with an OLF PBL Mercy Badge.

Each week students, parents and carers will come together as a school community to celebrate the great things that have happened. Students who have received an PBL award will be acknowledged at these assemblies on Friday mornings. 

We are looking forward to acknowledging and celebrating positive behaviour for learning at OLF throughout the year
