Having a school environment that is conducive to learning is critical at the All-Boys. We strive to have less rules and have meaningful ones that will apply over several circumstances. Establishing these expectations occurs at the beginning of the year and they will evolve throughout the school year when necessary.

Establishing Classroom & School Routines

• Teachers and students discuss school expectations at the beginning of the school year. Repeat when necessary throughout the year.
• Teachers and students develop classroom rules and routines together.
• Rules should describe positive behaviour.
• 5 rules, clearly stated in the affirmative, consistently applied
• Post the expectations.
• Principal will provide an overview at the first assembly of the year, and reminders during the year when needed.
• Consistently reinforce the expectations.
• Establish a consequence plan for the class (e.g. timeout, loss of privilege).
• Inform parents.
• Involve principal and/or resource teacher.

School Behaviour Plan & Consequences

• Supervisor in charge (teachers, support staff, lunchroom staff) will work to resolve incidents.
• Supervisor informs homeroom teacher of incident.
• Homeroom teacher follows class behaviour plan with consequences.

• In office, student completes Student Incident Report.
• Principal (or designate) meets with the student(s) for a conversation to seek resolution or consequences.
