The Merit Award Scheme is designed to acknowledge and reward good behaviour.

Bronze, silver and gold certificates are awarded to pupils at year group assemblies at the end of each term.

Pupils can obtain a maximum of 5 merits in any given week – 1 merit per day.

To be eligible for a certificate pupils must have at least 85% attendance each term.

School trips and the school formal are seen as rewards for good behaviour. Pupils will be allowed to go on trips and attend the formal if they obtain an agreed number of merits.

Pupils keep a record of their merits and attendance in their homework diaries.

The school holds an Annual Prize Presentation, which marks the successes of our school-leavers.

In addition, throughout the year, others are rewarded in School or Year Assemblies.
