What does PB4L look like @OrmPS?

This programme started running in the foundation year.  I can see it's good points as it's always great to be recognised for the good, rather than the bad.  Who in their right mind would want to be made a spectacle of when they're in the wrong?

PB4L is managed in the following ways:

• #Orestome tickets
• School-wide - rewards
• Focus Assembly - recognition (certificates and pens)

The following are areas that the Learners can be recognised in:

Learning * Playing * Eating * Meeting * Moving * Well-being

These areas help to guide our talking and thinking.  It's explicit and easy for the Learners to understand which area they have shown #oresome behaviour in - at all ages.

The tickets and small prizes may seem like intrinsic rewards and I know that some people don't agree a rewards system, but rewards are what many of us come to work every day for.   Although I thoroughly enjoy my job, I would certainly not be working full time if it wasn't for the money.  Is that not an intrinsic reward?

I for one am looking forward to using this language and developing positive relationships with all Learners through the use of this reward system.
