At Newington Primary School, we work to provide a consistent and positive approach to student behaviour, aiming to foster the development of personal responsibility and self-discipline.

We are committed to the following strategies:

• Implementing a whole school social and emotional learning program
• Encouraging awareness, understanding and respect of school rules
• Requiring children to accept responsibility for their own actions
• Giving positive reinforcement to improve self-esteem
• Publicly acknowledging student achievement
• Encouraging friendships, and
• Providing appropriate supervision in the school grounds.
