  2. What is the merit scheme? It is the schools’ way of rewarding students who work hard, do their best and take part in the life of Bellahouston Academy. How do the pupils take part? Teachers and staff will award your child a merit point on the computer system if they feel that they are doing really well in one of our merit standards. B ehaviour E ffort E xcellence

  3. What do they do with their merit points? At the end of each calendar month, a merit list is produced. It gives the names of all of our pupils who are on track for that month. Each month there will be reward for everyone on the merit list such as certificates, gift vouchers, visits to the cinema, visits to theme parks and much more.

  4. Staying on the merit list • All pupils start the month on the merit list. To remain on the list at the end of the month, they must have: • More merits than demerits • (or an equal number of both) • And Attendance for that month • greater than 90% • And Latecoming for that month • less than 8%.

  5. Merit tick sheets in Tutor class In order for pupils to work towards earning merits, each student registration tutor has the responsibility of filling in a tick sheet for the class during tutor time. Five ticks in a row result in the awarding of a merit. Ticks are given for those who are in tutor class on time, in uniform and with the appropriate equipment.

  6. How can parents/carers support their child? Ask your son/daughter how they are getting on with the merit scheme: Are you on the merit list this month? What’s the prize next month? What can you improve to get back on the merit list? How many merits do you have this month? How can parents/carers support the merit scheme? If you run a business or have a keen interest or hobby and could help us provide a merit prize, please contact us.
