What's required of everyone

  • Recognition and praise can lead to increased engagement and a positive self-concept among students.
  • According to the Journal of Positive Behavior Interventions, praise and positive reinforcement are effective in promoting desired behaviors and improving academic performance

We should aim to be handing out at least one a week, but remember we have a limited supply of praise cards so use them sparingly!

Helping to promote the praise card system to all pupils is essential, but try to avoid using them as the carrot at the end of the stick.

Praise cards will be available in the staff room, but if you need additional cards you can collect them from my classroom at any time.
