We seek to recognise students’ efforts and achievement in a wide range of way. Our recognition and rewards are linked to our school values: The Dinnington Way: kindness, respect, excellence. This is not exhaustive.
Recognition
We have a wide range of rewards to recognise hard work and positive contributions to school. Teachers in lessons award merits, praise postcards, The Hardest Worker in the Room postcards and positive phone calls home.
Marits
Merits are awarded in lessons to students who work hard and demonstrate excellent engagement in learning. They are recorded so that parents and students can see them. We then award badges based on the number of merits achieved:
Bronze = 300 merits
Silver = 800 merits
Gold = 2000 merits
Platinum = 5000 merits
