We also use various external training providers to offer more specialised provision.I am working closely with my colleague Mike O’Neill who is the interim Headteacher for the school.  I am also working closely with the Interim Executive Board who are governing the school during its current development phase.

Rewards - Mount Tamar School

How It WorksEvery lesson, pupils earn points towards their reward activity on Friday afternoon.These reward points are totalled up every week. The more points a pupil has, the sooner they will get to choose their Friday reward activity. Each activity has limited places, so only the top scorer from each class is guaranteed a place on whichever activity they want. To represent this, these 7 hard working pupils are given a golden ticket!Friday Reward ActivitiesThis half-term (January to February 2022), Row Lane Primary can choose from:Trampolining at SupertrampFifa & Pool TournamentGreat MT Bake OffGeocachingQuizzes & BoardgamesArt Attack: Painting & DrawingBut remember: each activity has a limited number of places. The more points a pupil has, the more likely it is that there will still be a place on their favourite activity.How to Score PointsEvery lesson, students can score points by following our 5 School Rules.These rules are:Follow Staff InstructionsSpeak politely and calmlyLook after our school and our equipmentKeep your hands and feet to yourselfTry your best and ask for help if you are stuckThis means that students can score up to 5 points each lesson, that''s 25 points each day. We expect our students to score at least 85% of the points that are available to them. That means that everyone who scores 85% or more will get to choose a reward activity, and will have the opportunity to spend or bank on the rewards menu.Students who do not achieve 85%, will have to ''Catch Up'' on the learning they missed. Once they''ve done this, they will join their classmates on the rewards activities.You can find the school poster of Our School Rules at the bottom of this page.
