In attempting to achieve our aims we recognise the importance of encouragement and praise and, as a staff, we seek to reward the efforts of pupils through the use of:
- Words of encouragement - both oral and written
- classroom merit systems and displays of good work
- referral to more senior members of staff for commendation
- public praise in front of classes, year groups or the whole school
- public acknowledgement through presentations at assembly
- the award of positions of responsibility or opportunity to represent the school
- the school report system to comment on behaviour and on involvement in school activities as well as academic success
- prizes which reflect achievement, progress and good attendance
- certificates to celebrate work, progress and services to the school
- school outings for pupils who uphold the Code of Discipline
- mention on the school web site
In the Senior School, pupils who have upheld the Code of Discipline are invited to participate in a number of social outings:
- Year 11 Christmas Dinner in a local restaurant
- Years 11 and 12 Barbecue at Crawfordsburn Country Park
- Year 12 Formal
- Prefects’ Evening Dinner
