Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports
PBIS
What is PBIS?●Set of strategies and systems designed to increase the
capacity of schools to (a) educate all students, including those with problem behaviors, and (b) increase student achievement and behavioral success
●A systems approach for establishing the social culture and behavioral supports needed for a school to be an effective learning environment for all students
Not specific practice or curriculum…it is ageneral approach
to preventing problem behavior
and encouragingpro-social behavior
Not limited to anyparticular group of
students…it isfor all students
Not new…it is based onlong history of
effective educationalpractices & strategies
Logic for SW-PBIS
●Shared values regarding a school’s vision or purpose○ Working towards a common goal and shared outcomes○ Collegial relationship amongst staff○ Consistent expectations and implementation across staff
●Establish a social culture within which both social and academic success is more likely○ Promote pro-social behavior○ Connect students to school○ Decrease development of new problem behaviors○ Prevent worsening of existing problem behaviors○ Redesign learning/teaching environment
Critical Features of SW-PBIS
●Build a culture of competence○ Define school-wide behavioral expectations○ Explicitly teach positive social expectations○ Acknowledge positive behavior○ Implement consistent corrective consequences for
problem behavior○ Use data for active decision-making
●Remember, there is no “ONE” strategy○ It takes a three-tiered systems approach○ This won’t “fix” all individual student problem
behaviors
