In 2011 there was a Review into Extreme Student Behaviour. The review was conducted by a group including Principals, Department staff and other key stakeholders.

The Terms of Reference were, to:

1. examine the current policy guiding the management of extreme behaviour in schools
2. examine how schools are currently working within the Northern Territory Safe Schools Framework
3. examine the role and effectiveness of the current Positive Learning Centre (PLC) program in supporting students demonstrating extreme behaviours
4. examine alternative options for dealing with very difficult/violent students.
