Student Awards
Our rewards system has been designed to recognise and value the achievements and attitude of all our students. Our aim in rewarding students is to motivate them to achieve their potential at College and to celebrate their achievements at every opportunity.
Students who demonstrate the qualities that are enshrined within the College Learning Charter: Be Happy, Be Ambitious, Make a Difference will be rewarded. When students demonstrate these qualities, achievement points are awarded and logged. Additional Achievement Points can be awarded for any other positive behaviour such as effort and demonstrating a growth mind-set..
