PBIS Tier 1 Team Training

PBIS Tier 1 Team Training

 

  • Our training and resources are from Missouri School-Wide Positive Behaviour Support(MO SW-PBS)  
  • This training is rigorously researched and updated each year to ensure it is consistent with the most up to date advances in behavioural and implementation science.
  • We facilitate all our training in conjunction with the MO SW-PBS team, including Dr Tim Lewis (one of the original architects of PBIS).

Whole School Awareness

A 45 minute session for a whole school staff. Designed to give an overview of what SWPBIS is, and how the training and implementation would roll out.

Tier 1 Training

Our Tier 1 team training follows the procedure of SWPBIS, and guides team through the process of designing their Tier 1 intervention before they implement – no more building the plane in flight! Through 9 x 2.5 hour online modules over a school year we will help your team to design your behaviour expectations, school-wide matrix, routines and procedures, teaching and acknowledgement systems, and what to do if students make behavioural errors. We will then support your team through the process of launching SWPBIS and provide technical assistance and problem solving as required.

We can support you with a “pre-start” Zoom session to ensure you have the right team together, and they know what to expect from training.

A representative team (typically between 6 and 10 school staff) will attend the 9 online training modules, in which they will get the knowledge and resources to build all the Tier 1 systems over the course of one school year.

During each training module the team will get a clear idea of what to do and how, to implement each of the Essential Components of SWPBIS. The training is focussed and interactive, with work time within training and a clear list of tasks to complete before the next session.

Schools who have completed this model of training have found they are fully ready to “launch” SWPBIS tier 1 in their school the following year.

“If a child doesn’t know how to read, we teach.
If a child doesn’t know how to swim, we teach.
If a child doesn’t know how to multiply, we teach.
If a child doesn’t know how to drive, we teach.
If a child doesn’t know how to behave, we ...teach? ...punish?
Why can’t we finish the last sentence as automatically as we do the others?"

“When it comes to discipline, it does not make sense for educators to use the criminal justice model first, before employing what they were professionally prepared to use–teaching and mentoring approaches.”
