Praise & Reward
At Aston Academy we are committed to making sure that the things our students do are recognised and they get the praise and rewards they deserve for upholding and demonstrating the school values.
Our praise and rewards policy mean that they have a huge amount of opportunities to be celebrated for the big things and for the small things – sometimes it may be a log on Classcharts or a certificate but other times it could be cinema sessions or end of year trips.
We want to make sure that, whatever their strengths, we are there to celebrate them with you and show that we are proud of what you achieve.
Many of our rewards are given out every day, week, half term, term and year. The below are some examples of the rewards that happen in every year group.
- Positive logs on Classcharts
- Positive phone calls
- Student of the day/week/half term/term
- Proud Friday certificates
- Assembly ‘Spin It To Win It’ rewards
- Outstanding Attendance award
- 0 Negative logs award
- Principals Breakfast
- End of Year rewards trip
