Rewards atThe Manor Academy

Fostering a culture of Positivity and Achievement

Achievement points

• Staff will use the SIMS system to add Achievement points

• Expectation that all staff will use these every lesson

• We want the students to recognise how they can achieve them and what they are worth

Achievement points available on SIMS

• Some Achievement points are available by clicking through the SIMS register.

• Some Achievement points are available by clicking through the Students profile in SIMS.

• You do not need to write anything, adding it is enough

Getting students to value achievement

• Achievement points directly linked to rewards – students can clearly see what happens when

• Chances to win BIG prizes rather than use VIVO points to ‘buy’ small rewards

• Parental contact for regular and set achievements
