STUDENT Shoutout!

A huge well done to these students who were awarded certificates last week for 100% attendance. Here at Strood Academy we value high attendance and recognise the importance of this in contributing to academic success. We are honoured to be able to come together as a community to celebrate the successes of our students - well done to you all!

Our year 10 student, Viktoria, has been spending her free time creating beautiful displays in Science. A fabulous way to create an educational learning space in the department. Students have been actively looking at and asking questions about them already. Thank you Viktoria.

Our amazing Year 10 GCSE Fine Art students have been working so hard on their 'Food' themed coursework unit. Students have explored the work of artists & trialled different media, and are now starting to develop ideas for final outcomes ready for their upcoming deadline.

Miss Walker & Miss Blackman are so incredibly proud of each student in the group and the enthusiasm they have shown since joining the course in September. Please enjoy looking through these photographs - this is just a snippet of the incredible work the students are producing!

Year 13 Criminology were recently learning about the different organisations in the criminal justice system and how they are connected with each other. They worked together to create a visual representation of the different organisations and their connection. Fantastic work, well done to you all!

REWaRDS!

Towards the end of Module 3, we introduced a number of new rewards for students including MYP Learner profile attribute badges and Friday attendance rewards. Information on these rewards can be seen below.

MYP Learner profile attribute badges can be awarded for:

Achieving 10 or more reward points in that attribute.
Completing an additional task/community project/something notable outside of their lesson time.
Individual nominations from staff members.

Friday attendance rewards: students are having the chance to be rewarded if they attend a full week at school from Friday to Thursday each week. Rewards are being given out the following Friday and students must be in attendance on that day to receive their reward. Two students per year group, per college are being awarded a certificate and a prize if their attendance is 100% during this period.

We have celebrated a number of these rewards so far and we look forward to awarding more badges, prizes and certificates to students throughout the rest of the academic year.
