Achievement
Celebrating Achievements:
Our Reward System is being updated to coincide with Pitfour's School Values. School staff recognise and reward pupils for Safe, Kind and Respectful behaviour.
Recognising achievement is an integral part of Curriculum for Excellence.
The reasons for recognising learners’ achievements include:
to increase self-esteem, improve motivation and keep young people engaged in learning
to encourage young people to reflect on their learning – where they are and where they want to go – and help them to articulate the skills gained, in discussion with other learning partners and in interviews with potential employers, colleges or higher education
to help deliver the aims, values and purposes of Curriculum for Excellence – in which planning opportunities for achievement is an integral part of the curriculum.
