At All Saints’ we believe that every child is a special person, has many talents and should recognise these and be proud of them.  We wish to celebrate their achievements with them and their parents. We have developed a range of systems across the school, and in many subject areas, that are designed to motivate children, and to develop their self-esteem and confidence. 
Parents are invited to a celebration assembly held every Friday afternoon from 2.30 until 3.05pm. This is an opportunity for the school to celebrate children's personal achievements from in and outside of school.

Awards

Children are awarded a range of certificates throughout the school year to recognise academic achievement, effort, behaviour and caring for others. 

Reception: ClassDojo points for  academic achievement, effort, behaviour and caring for others that lead towards  a series of 'Raising the Roof' certificates which culminate at the end of the year with the construction of a complete house

Key Stage 1: ClassDojo points that lead towards 'Rainbow steps' certificates. As they reach the end of Key Stage One, they are awarded their 'Pot of Gold'.

Key Stage 2: Children in Key Stage 2 are placed into a house team: JUPITER, SATURN, EARTH or NEPTUNE. They receive house points through the week that lead towards bronze, silver, silver plus and gold certificates. A weekly total for each house is also collected in the achievement assembly.

Star of the Week: Each class teacher nominates two pupils to be awarded a 'star of the week' certificate based on their work and efforts during the previous week. They have an opportunity to share their work in the celebration assembly.

Headteacher Award: Each week, Mrs Rose chooses between 2 and 4 children that have stood out for excellent effort, attitude, kindness or achievement. They are awarded with a certificate and trophy in the celebration assembly.

Encouraging the development of English and maths skills

Important skills in English and maths underpin progress across the curriculum. We have developed a number of award systems to motivate children to recognise the importance of these skills and persevere to develop them.

Reading: From Year 3 to Year 6, the Reading Challenge is linked to the reading of school chosen texts. Children can become ‘Super Cool’, ‘Amazingly Wicked’ or ‘Mind Blowingly Brilliant.’ Once they are ‘Mind Blowingly Brilliant’ children move to the ‘Mission Impossible' and ultimately climb the ‘Perilous Pyramid.’

Handwriting: The transition from the correct formation of letters to fluent joined up handwriting is rewarded with certificates, a handwriting pen and a fountain pen, as children move through the school.

Doodle certificates and trophy: The class with the highest level of participation in maths home learning, receives a trophy each week. Individual certificates and prizes are awarded to children who have earnt points for completing online learning.
