As Head of Motivation School, I am responsible for the welfare both academically and pastorally for the all of the students in my school. I work closely with Mrs Read to ensure that challenging academic targets are set and regularly monitored to ensure that they are achieved. I monitor and regularly review the attendance, punctuality and behaviour in our small school and, alongside Mrs Holmes, ensure that the necessary interventions are put in place as and when they are needed. I passionately believe that every student in my school has a talent for something which, given the right opportunities, can be expressed and developed. Each week we publicly celebrate the successes of our small school through our weekly assembly so that all of our students have an opportunity to be recognised and rewarded for what they have achieved.

Congratulations to the following students who have been nominated by their tutors:

James is positive, polite, and has a can do attitude. He arrives to tutor on time and is happy to take part in any tutor time activity. James is always present in full uniform and equipped for learning. He treats everyone with respect and is a team player. James is a good motivator and always up for a challenge. It is a pleasure to have James as part of the group.

Callum is a really helpful, polite member of the tutor group.  He has a great positive attitude and is constantly striving to improve himself.  With this ‘can do’ attitude Callum is sure to be a success in life!

 

MCB  Ellie Cox

She is a star and always brings laughter and smiles to our tutor group whether that’s from sneaking some sweets from the cupcakes that we make (thinking we didn’t see her) or entertaining us in our tutor room.

She is very independent and is loved by all.

 

MDB Stephen Passman

Stephen has great attendance and sets a good example to others with his positive attitude to learning. He also works hard and is a positive team player.

 

MAF -Jade Raspison

MAB Morgan-Leigh Smith

MER Catherine Reed

Catherine is an excellent role model to the entire tutor group. Catherine takes part in all of tutor group activities and gets on well with everyone.  She is very well liked and respected by all members of the group.  Her attendance, behaviour and attitude to learning are all excellent and she is helpful and completely reliable. We are also proud of her achievements in scoring so highly in the accelerated reading and vivo schemes.

MSD Shelby Pearson                

Shelby has a cheerful “zest for life” and this has a very positive impact on others who know her. She is friendly, polite, motivated and intelligent but most of all she has an abundance of common sense. Shelby can be relied upon for sensible ideas and will always be the first to volunteer during tutor group activities.

Shelby has been such a brilliant role model for the younger students. She is always on time, with the correct uniform and equipment and is always willing to help those who need it.

Shelby is developing into a young girl that any parent would be very proud of. She is an outstanding student and a treasured member of my tutor group.

Former C10 Jade Charman

Jade has a fantastic attendance record and a great, positive attitude to learning.  She has developed so much this year as she started off as a very quiet student who didn’t really take part in activities. What a change! Jade is an active member of local Army Cadets and has taken on the roles of Fire Marshal and buddy for year 7 students. She is an active reader in tutorial, took part in sports day (even though she would not describe herself as sporty), she is welcoming to others and totally inclusive.

He also will put himself forward to help the tutor in any way he can. He is council representative, helped write the script for our shield and took a lead with the banner. He is also Mr Forteath’s leading Vivo Points scorer.  His attendance is also awesome at 99.7%

 

MSFD Kai Fishlock

Kai has participated in every tutor time event so far this year. He always volunteers, tries his hardest and never needs to be persuaded to get involved. A quick chat with some of Kai’s classroom teachers confirms that he is a model pupil within lessons and consistently upholds academy standards.
