Rewards | Chorlton High School

Chorlton High School is continually developing and extending a range of events and activities to reward our students: we aim to praise our students in lessons and around school on a daily, termly and yearly basis. The ethos of rewards is a central aspect of the school as it encourages a sense of belonging, community and personal responsibility.Subject CommendationsAt the end of each half term, two students from each class will receive a ‘Subject Commendation’. Nominations are made by class teachers and are given for a variety of reasons including: attainment, effort, engagement or significant improvements being made in the subject. Each of these students will receive a ‘Subject Commendation’ certificate which they can place in their CHS record of achievement (all students in all years have a record of achievement).Teacher RewardsOur school places a great deal of emphasis on the classroom teacher rewarding students, as it is through rewards that a positive relationship with learning is fostered. Some of our other rewards used by classroom teachers on a daily basis include sending postcards home, positive phone calls home, stickers, department merits and ‘Star of the Lesson’ wall with students’ names displayed on it. Other personalised rewards in place in school include brunch with the Headteacher or letters home from either the Headteacher, members of the Senior Leadership Team or Head of Year.Celebrate CHSAs part of our whole school ‘work ethic’ drive, we celebrate the success of pupils who consistently work hard in all lessons and strive to produce work to the very best of their ability every day.

For students to be considered for these outings, they must demonstrate good or significantly improved attendance and punctuality, high levels of effort in lessons, progress towards their attainment targets and a positive attitude towards learning.Key Stage 3 GraduationAs a celebration of Key Stage 3 achievements, all Year 8 students will attend a KS3 graduation ceremony.
