Relationship Management

At Cantell we believe that a safe environment of mutual respect and co-operation results in the most effective climate for learning and teaching.

We believe the highest standards of challenge and expectation result in the highest levels of achievement.

We believe that all members of the community have a responsibility to develop and promote positive relationships, to enable all students to achieve their full potential and have a pride in all that they do.

We believe that students' confidence and self-esteem are developed through encouragement, incentives, rewards and praise.

We believe that all adults within the school community are role models for the students and our behaviour will reflect our expectations of the children.

We believe that it is important to involve students in all aspects of school life, which will foster responsibility, maturity, ownership and pride.

We believe that all members of the community should display a respect and tolerance of others' ways of life and beliefs.

We believe that in issues relating to behaviour we should give students choices, helping them to make a connection between the choices they make and the outcome we create and in this way influence future choices.

We believe that all adult members of the community should be committed to a consistent approach in the behaviour management of the student body.
