The Praise List: 21st September – 5th October

Every two weeks students are awarded an effort score of 1 – 4. This score powers our praise and rewards strategy to allow the efforts of our students to be recognised on a regular basis.

For Years 7-8, scores are awarded in English, maths and science. (If a student in Year 7 or 8 has received a C3 in any of their other subjects during that fortnight, they will not be added to the praise list.)

For Years 9-11, scores are awarded in all their subjects.

What do we mean by outstanding effort?

• Student’s work is completed to the best of their ability (including presentation) enabling them to meet the Gold Standard.
• Behaviour is ALWAYS conducive to great learning with no instances of students failing to follow the Perfect Climate.

Score of 1

• 100% attendance in all lessons, and
• Outstanding effort in class (including behaviour), and
• Outstanding effort with homework (or remote learning).

Score of 2

• Only minor issues with any of the three points above.

Score of 3

• At times, effort in class (including behaviour) has required improvement, and/or
• Effort with homework (or remote learning) requires improvement.

Score of 4

• Effort in class (including behaviour) is a cause for concern, and/or
• No evidence that students have engaged in their remote learning tasks (this does not include homework set when students are in school).

Score of 0 (which does not affect their average score)

• The student has been absent from all lessons this fortnight, or
• The student is unable to complete their remote learning due to illness.
