Positive High Expectations in the Classroom

Positive High Expectations in the Classroom

The teacher is responsible for instilling positive high-expectations behaviour in the classroom. Teachers ensure that the experience in the classroom matches the broader school-wide culture around behaviour expectations.

Creating a positive high-expectations classroom environment means that the teacher: 

• believes every student can achieve, if given opportunities  
• accepts accountability for student achievement 
• holds each student accountable for their behaviour 
• supports parents to ensure their child is school-ready.
