January 2014 saw Prophecy Pre-School become the first Pre-School to pilot the Positive Behaviour Plan, as part of the Child Friendly School initiative, which has been introduced in the island’s education system.
After drafting and discussing the School’s Positive Behaviour Plan with parents, it has been implemented this term.
The initiative was taken by The Principal of Prophecy Pre-School, Teacher Heather Gumbs, who says. “Prophecy Pre-School is forward thinking and any initiative which can help us improve is always welcome. The reason for applying the policy at Prophecy Pre-School is because we are committed to providing a physical environment for teaching and learning which is loving, caring, safe and secure”.
The teachers have been enthusiastic about the initiative and have been making progress in preparing the necessary material for effective and efficient implementation of the Policy.
It is hoped that the experience over the term will assist them to prepare more adequately for the new academic year 2014-15.
