Personal Award - The Star Achievement Awards<br />
The aims of this award system are:<br />
To help children achieve their potential by striving towards set personal targets;<br />
To promote positive attitudes and high standards in behaviour and work;<br />
To encourage all children to be respectful of, and care about needs of others;<br />
To enable adults to acknowledge effort and high standards of work and behaviour.<br />
The system is organised as follows: -<br />
• Each child has a Star Record Sheet, which is kept by the class teacher, in a<br />
special "Star" folder in the classroom.<br />
• Stars are awarded by the teachers for a range of different types of good<br />
behaviour, attitudes and work.<br />
• Support staff can recommend children for Stars by notifying the class teacher.<br />
• Stars are coloured in or stamped and recorded throughout the week on the<br />
Star sheet, with a short explanation of why they were given, and records the<br />
date Stars are awarded. This must be kept up to date. Every term folders are<br />
monitored by Team Leaders/PSHE subject leader. The Headteacher will also<br />
ask to see folders on a regular basis.<br />
• On Friday mornings, each teacher will review the star sheets in the presence of<br />
the whole class. In this way, success will be celebrated as a whole class.<br />
• On the achievement of 10 Stars, children will qualify for a Certificate of<br />
Achievement.<br />
• By Thursday, teachers should notify the Headteacher of those children who<br />
have achieved certificates/badges during that week, so that they can be<br />
presented in front of the school in the Friday school Celebration Assembly.<br />
Once a child has been awarded 30 Stars (3 Certificates), he/she will be eligible<br />
for a badge of achievement.<br />
• A complete Star Sheet (30 Stars) should be included in the child's Personal and<br />
Social Profile, as an ongoing record of achievement. The completed sheet needs<br />
to be signed by the Headteacher.<br />
• Children will be encouraged to value certificates and badges awarded. At their<br />
final assembly at <strong>Hornbill</strong>, they will be asked to wear their collection of badges<br />
as a record of achievement, and as an inspiration to younger children.<br />
• The "Star Certificate System" is cumulative, and will follow the child's school<br />
life at <strong>Hornbill</strong>, from FS1 to Year 6. Star sheets will accompany the child when<br />
he/she changes classes at the end of each school year.<br />
• Team leaders and the Head teacher will regularly monitor the system.<br />
