Introduction
Having effective and nurturing practices in our school helps create a welcoming and safe environment. Ensuring that we make a concerted effort to hire teachers and staff that can support effective and nurturing practices will help us maintain a positive school climate One that is conducive to fostering strong relationships and where students can confidently engage in their work and achieve academic goals. This presentation will outline effective and nurturing practices and a process for constructing a plan for recruiting, selecting, and evaluating school staff.

School Organization
Systems
Student behavior management systems may vary from teacher to teacher because of characteristics of students such as culture, age, and gender and personal styles. However, effective and nurturing practices can be established through;
Establishing Rules
Schools must set up rules that every student should know and abide by. On the first day of school, students should enter schools to find rules and guidelines posted on the board so that they can read and understand what behavior is expected of them. The rules posted should be a reminder to display the right behavior. Consequences for violating the rules should also be provided as they help encourage and maintain prosocial behaviors. Rules and consequences of violating these rules are significant to promoting classroom order (McIntyre, n.d).
School Organization
The structure of the school should facilitate a nurturing approach by offering broad-based experiences in a school environment that promotes routines, security, clear boundaries, and repetitive learning opportunities (educationscotland.gov.uk, n.d). It should have a structure with firm clear boundaries and teachers working together supportively to enhance positive behavior. For instance, the school should have clear communication channels for effective communication between staff and the students. The language used should be easily understood to encourage positive behavior (Kidd & Dury, n.d).

Student Behavior Management Systems
Effective Leadership
A coherent approach to leadership which recognizes success and supports challenges is essential for establishing student behavior management systems (Kidd & Dury, n.d). Effective principals should be instructional leaders who provide teachers with support and motivation needed to perform their tasks accordingly. They should support teachers when establishing student behavior management systems and encourage a system that is nurturing by nature. They should provide support to their teachers by having ongoing and informal interactions as well as provide direct and immediate feedback of the student behavior management systems being established (centerforpubliceducation.org, 2010).
Parental Involvement
Schools should create disciplinary systems with clear expectations and consequences with input from parents, staff, students, and school administrators (Blum, 2005). Parents and teachers should be involved in a sustained and planned way in establishing student behavior management systems to enhance positive behaviors (educationscotland.gov.uk, n.d). They should be allowed to provide ideas, opinions, and offer suggestions on components of a student behavior management system. School leaders should develop cooperative relationships with school stakeholders which includes parents and involve them in school matters such as a student behavior management system (Educational Impact, 2013).

Plan Components
Job Specification and Description
Recruiting Methods
Plan Components
The recruiting, selecting, and evaluating plan for school staff should have the following components:
Job specification and job description - Identify the need for a new hire and create a job specification and job description. The job description should have the most important qualities, education, experiences, and characteristics the successful candidate should possess (Heathfield, 2016). It should also include a detailed description of the main responsibilities of the position and outline some of the benefits that will be offered to them as new employees.
Recruiting Methods - Identify how long the position will be open for candidates to apply. Determine where to advertise the job position in order to find the best candidates. Newspapers, job posting boards, social media sites, job fairs, recruiter, online job boards etc…

Plan Components
Select Search Committee and Interview Methods
Get the Word Out
Select Search Committee and Interview Methods - Identify search committee who will indirectly and directly interact with job applicants. We will ensure that our stakeholders are represented on the search committee. Determine the interviewers for the potential employees and the qualities they will need to evaluate. Plan the interview and the follow-up process (Heathfield, 2016). Provide interviewers with a list questions prior to the interview.
Getting the Word Out – The job position can be posted once the position description is complete. Accuracy of the job description and the post should be confirmed as it may affect the applicant pool.
