REWARD POINTS

Students can earn reward points by demonstrating the school's Core Learning Characteristics. At certain points throughout the year there are special events for students to gain extra rewards. These include World Kindness Day where students showing particular kindness towards each other are awarded points.

LOSING REWARD POINTS

Whilst the priority is to accentuate the positive in respect of rewards, it is also important for students to understand the consequences of negative behaviour. This is reflected in the reward system, where points are deducted when a student fails to meet expectations about behaviour and attitude to learning.

GOLDEN TICKET EVENTS

At the end of each half term the Academy will hold a Golden Ticket event to celebrate the achievements of students. These events involve giving students access to exciting activities in a session, usually in the last week of the half term. Students can gain access to the Golden Ticket event by spending 50 of their achievement points. Only students who have enough points will be able to participate in this reward activity. This gives students an extra incentive to work hard and meet expectations.

At Maltby Manor Academy, we celebrate children who actively demonstrate our Core Learning Characteristics through their learning and behaviour.

• Awarded to children who are actively displaying key learning behaviours in the classroom and around school.

• Stickers match the colour of the CLC they represent, making it clear which learning behaviour has been recognised.

• They provide immediate praise and encouragement, motivating children to keep showing these positive learning attitudes.

• Over time, stickers build a picture of a child’s commitment to becoming a confident, considerate and resilient learner.

At Maltby Manor Academy, we are committed to recognising and celebrating the children who demonstrate our Core Learning Characteristics during their learning.

• When a child displays one of the Core Learning Characteristics, they will receive an Individual Achievement Postcard.

• These postcards are awarded by a member of the Senior Leadership Team and are sent home to share with families.

• They recognise and celebrate exceptional examples of children living out our Core Learning Characteristics in their daily learning.

At Maltby Manor Academy, we encourage and celebrate regular reading at home.

• Each time a child reads at home at least three times a week, they earn a Reading Star sticker.

• Once they collect the required number of stickers, they are awarded a Reading Star badge.

Badges are earned in order, working up through the stages. This reward system encourages children to keep reading regularly, building their skills, confidence, and enjoyment of books.

The Superstar Award is a recognition bestowed upon students for excellent achievements. This will be presented during Friday's Superstar assembly. Children can earn the Superstar Award for exceptional accomplishments, such as, demonstrating outstanding academic improvement, displaying exceptional kindness and empathy towards peers, showing remarkable leadership skills within the school community, consistently exhibiting a positive attitude and contributing to a positive learning environment, etc.

At Maltby Manor Academy, every child is encouraged to take part in the 25 Book Challenge – designed to promote a love of reading at home and reading for pleasure.

• Children aim to read 25 books across the year.

• Progress is recorded in their reading log within their planner.

• Milestone achievements are celebrated in assembly with certificates for reading:

  • 5 books

  • 10 books

  • 15 books

  • 20 books

When a child completes all 25 books, their achievement is celebrated and recognised as a fantastic commitment to reading.
