Beastly Brilliance
At St Peter at Gowts Church of England Primary School, we want to recognise, encourage and reward outstanding learning behaviours as well as personal attributes and values.
We have combined the work of Guy Claxton’s ‘Building Learning Power’ and Neil Hawkes’ ‘Values Based Learning’ as well as our children’s opinions and created our own version of what we think make an outstanding member of St Peter at Gowts Primary School.
Three children from each class are rewarded each week with a Beastly Brilliance certificate if they display at least one of the traits. They then receive a special privilege in every collective worship for the following week.
If you would like to know more information about this incentive, please feel free to contact us and we can share more with you.
