Headteacher Award
Each week the Headteacher will award a pupil a Headteacher Award. This can be awarded for a wide range of reasons. The child will receive a certificate in our Celebration Assembly.
All children are allocated a house when joining the school: tigers, sharks or steelers.
A child receives a house point when they have attained 10 individual Dojo points. These will be given a token to go into their house tube – this is in the main entrance and a visual representation of the house celebrations.
Individual Dojo points will be issued to parents throughout the week. These can be achieved for any of our school values – 3 Bes, Citizen values and those linked to our Learning Legends.
If a child achieves 10 Dojo points they will visit the Headteacher to receive a house point.
Children always work towards individual certificates: copper, bronze, silver, gold, platinum and diamond. These are reached in multiples of 50 points.
