"...a simple, efficient scheme that gave them more time with their pupils…"
Saint Benedict Catholic School and Performing Arts College is a Catholic secondary school in Derby. It has been using printed school rewards from www.schoolstickers.co.uk for several years with great results.
Saint Benedict was looking for a sophisticated online system that would make it easy for teachers to manage their house points system and improve participation and motivation across years 7-11. Although the sticker system was working well, recording data was cumbersome and time-consuming. Vincent Round, Director of Learning, had this to say:
"Pupils are always excited to receive a physical reward and enjoy being able to register their stickers and create their own online sticker album…"
However:
"...managing and co-ordinating the competitions was complicated. To improve the motivation of our students we knew it was important to put a more structured reward scheme in place."
Saint Benedict now uses Carrot Rewards to manage its house points system. Teachers no longer have to spend hours logging and totalling points for weekly assemblies thereby freeing them up to get on with the essentials of their job. Carrot effortlessly captures relevant information and transfers it to easy to manage data and visualisations. Because this data can be accessed by the students themselves, this has produced an additional benefit for the school in that pupils are so keen to see their house do well, they are encouraging each other to achieve more.
