Rewards and Behaviour at Wimboldsley
Everyone at Wimboldsley Primary School has very high expectations and standards when it comes to behaviour. Each class has a Charter; devised with the pupils at the beginning of the year, based on our Ready, Respectful and Safe agenda and uses the language from the UN Conventions of the Rights of the Child as a means to articulate these expectations.
Rewards
The children are rewarded in a variety of ways in all aspects of their school day.
Children can be rewarded for a wide range of things they do - work, attitude, manners and improvements.
Here are some of the ways your child is rewarded in school:
- Verbal praise
- Written comments on work (tickled pink and green for growth)
- Team Points (when a child joins our school they are allocated a team RED, BLUE, GREEN or YELLOW)
- Head Teacher Certificates
-Well Done Awards
-Rossettes
WELL DONE AWARDS
Well done awards can be achieved for absolutely anything!
So, do your best, be polite, look to improve, respect others, be neat, act in the right way, always listen, be resilient, be positive, and work together.
How they work –
10 WELL DONE awards = 1 GOLD CARD
Once a gold card has been awarded the well done awards are thrown away and the gold card is kept.
4 GOLD CARDS = GOLD BADGE
8 GOLD CARDS = YELLOW BADGE
12 GOLD CARDS = RED BADGE
16 GOLD CARDS = GREEN BADGE
20 GOLD CARDS = BLUE BADGE
Once a gold badge has been awarded the 4 gold cards will be taken away.
After the Blue badge
Children can earn BRONZE, SILVER and GOLD LEARNER ROSETTES. These work in the same way every 4 GOLD CARDS is a ROSETTE.
