Behaviour Record
Artefact 1
Annotation
The artefact outlines the use of The Incident Register on Sentral. When: In 2016, Chatswood Public School began to document student behaviour began using Sentral to record a summary of behaviours that have occurred within the school over the period of a school day. What: We expect children to achieve academic success, to play fairly, to act safely, to respect school property and to interrelate positively with each other and with staff and parent helpers. How: When an incident occurs in the playground or in the classroom, teachers are required to log the incident online. Why: The information is analysed by the executive team, Learning and Support Team and staff members to help identify certain patterns of behaviour and therefore allowing the school to plan strategies for managing prevailing risks faced by the students.
The Significant Impact

Professional Standards - Sustaining and Growing
Student Welfare at Chatswood Public School encompasses everything that the school community does to meet the personal and social needs of students and to enhance their well‐being. Problem behaviours are regarded as learning errors and logged onto the Sentral system. In the event that a student has demonstrated inappropriate behaviour, teachers will support improvement through re‐teaching, pre‐correction and corrective feedback where necessary providing a dynamic learning culture.
Leading Element
Management Practices and Processes - Sustaining and Growing
Sentral allows staff to record observations of student behaviour and to plan appropriate support and intervention where a student’s pattern of behaviour becomes a pattern of concern. Observations are recorded onto the Incident Register allowing teachers as well as the Learning and Support Team, to provide support through conferencing, pre‐correction and re‐teaching to students who are having difficulties in staying on task, being respectful or keeping themselves and others safe. Parents will be kept informed of staff concerns by means of letters, phone calls as well as formal and informal meetings with staff.
