SIMS Rewards System

Great Marlow School is now using the award winning SIMS technology to reward the work, efforts and success of  our students. It replaces Vivos. SIMS achievement points can be added frequently and consistently. Rewards are given for hard work, outstanding responses to a task, and exceptional contributions to the school community.

Once a student reaches a certain threshold of SIMS achievement points they will receive a bronze, silver, gold or platinum award. In addition to this, at the end of a school term, the students with the highest achievement points will be recognised in a formal school assembly. On a weekly basis the headteacher meets with students who have been nominated by staff for a Headteacher’s Award. The aim of the reward is to encourage students to take an active part in all aspects of school life.

Rewards are made for effort, progress, positive behaviour, displaying good uniform, participating in wider school activities and for many other reasons.

Staff can also use the departmental postcards available to reward students for some of the reasons outlined above.
