Ideas for a Positive Behavior Intervention System for School

Establish a school wide intervention system to encourage positive behavior. When students consistently display positive behavior, it improves the school climate. Make this the mission of the school with a system that is relevant to the students. Listen to the student to find out what is meaningful to him. Design incentives to reinforce the behavior. The goal is for students to automatically display positive behavior during a majority of the school day.
  1. Behavior Ticket

    • When someone performs a good deed or displays positive behavior, award him with a behavior ticket. The student collects tickets each time he does something well, to redeem prizes. Find out the types of prizes the students like, to encourage students to want to earn behavior tickets. The tickets are redeemable like cash, with larger prizes costing more tickets.

    School Wide Recognition

    • If your school has a school wide television station or intercom system, announce student achievements. Announce the names or make a video of students who have displayed positive behavior. This shows students that positive behavior is appreciated and expected within the school. Other students may strive to be recognized in this way by improving behavior.

    Parent Reception

    • Invite parents to celebrate student behavioral success. Teachers choose students who consistently practice positive behavior to attend the reception. This is a time for parents, students and teachers to socialize and thank the parents for providing support to encourage the student. The teacher also awards students with certificates during this time.

    Peer Mediators

    • Peer mediators attempt to change negative behaviors into positives. The mediators are groups of students chosen by teachers who display excellent behavior. This group listens to peer conflicts and provides solutions to help students overcome problems to increase positive behaviors. Students learn steps to avoid negativity and are provided with resources within the school to utilize, like counselors.
