Golden Tickets
A golden ticket is distributed to one student per lesson by the class teacher (including tutor and reading). The golden ticket is presented to the student in the lesson who has illustrated excellent character, endeavour, and the TUDOR values throughout.
The class teacher will give the student a physical golden ticket at the end of the lesson in conjunction with the wrap up slide. The class teacher must then log it on Bromcom.
At the end of every half-term, there will be a golden ticket prize draw. The number of golden tickets a student has in that half-term, equates to the number of times their name is in the prize draw. The prize draw will be conducted as shown in the table below. The prize draw will be conducted in conjunction with the Top Banana assembly at the end of each half-term.
| Level | Example Prizes |
|---|---|
| Bronze – 20 pupils | Pencil Case (with equipment), A4 sketchpad, highlighters, flash cards, themed equipment set, colouring book, playing cards. |
| Silver – 10 pupils | Chess set, bike lock, bike puncture repair kit, table tennis bat and ball, A3 Sketchpad, acrylic paints, scientific calculator. *Or any bronze prize if the pupil prefers). |
| Gold – 5 pupils | £10 Amazon voucher. |
| Platinum – 1 pupil | £30 Amazon voucher. |
Samworth Merits/Positive Behaviour Events
Pupils earn merits in numerous ways. A teacher can issue 1 merit to a max of 3 pupils per lesson if the pupils go above and beyond expectations. A golden ticket is worth 3 merits. Tutee of the week is worth 5 merits. A postcard home is worth 5 merits. Every lesson a pupil attends and is on time = 1 merit.
Staff log merits on Bromcom which connects to the “My Child at School” app allowing parents to keep track of how many merits their child has.
When pupils hit a merit milestone, they will receive a lapel badge. [Bronze = 300. Silver = 600. Gold = 1000.]
