Kindness in Action: Rewarding Students for Good Deeds

Acknowledge and reward students for random acts of kindness within the school setting. Staff members can identify and issue RAK (Random Acts of Kindness) cards to students who perform deeds like helping others, holding doors open, and more. Prizes will be given on a half-term and yearly basis to encourage kindness beyond the classroom. The more RAK cards students collect, the higher their chances of winning prizes. This initiative aims to promote a culture of kindness and empathy among students.

  1. Random Acts of Kindness Students caught doing “good” things

  2. Idea • We would like to acknowledge and reward students that do random acts of kindness within the school • This is mainly outside of lessons • Any member of staff can identify students (not just teachers) • It would be on a half termly basis, with prizes awarded at the end of every half term • There would be larger prizes at the end of the year

  3. What are random acts of kindness • They are actions which students do outside of lessons and are not asked to do • Some examples are: • Holding open doors for others • Picking up litter which is not theirs • Helping other students/staff/parents/visitors • Looking after other students which are in need of support/help • Etc • These do not replace the normal house point system and rewards/certificates (for lesson work and house participation), this is in addition to that

  4. How does it work? • All staff in the school will have access to small (credit card size) reward cards (RAK cards) that look like this: • The cards can be stored in departments, house centre, reception, staff room, etc.

  5. How does it work? • When a staff member sees a student doing a random act of kindness they can choose to issue them a RAK card • The staff member will fill out the required details on the RAK card for the student and hand them the card • It is then down to the student to post the RAK card into the correct house RAK box in the house centre • At the end of every half term the house RAK box will be taken to the last house assembly of the half term • RAK cards will be drawn from the box and different prizes awarded

  6. What are the ideas for prizes each half term per house • Possible ideas of prizes and quantities, per half term, per house assembly: • 2 x £10 Amazon voucher • 4 x “Jump to the front of the canteen” week pass • 2 x Non-uniform day for the student • 2 x Free breakfast for student and a friend in the canteen • 2 x Chocolate/sweet prize • 2 x Free lunch for student and a friend in the canteen • 1 x Special seasonal prize • 1 x A positive phone call home from Mr Jackman • 1 x A free book of the students choice from the Library • We might also be able to get free vouchers from companies that donate (McDonalds, Cinema, Dominoes, etc)

  7. End of year award • All RAK cards from every half term are entered into a end of year draw for each house • There will be one card picked from each house at the end of the year to get the large prize of: • 1 x £25 Amazon Voucher • Possible other ideas of prize (budget depending)

  8. So… • The more Random Acts of Kindness that students do, the more RAK cards they have in the house RAK box, and the greater chance they have of getting a prize! • We are aiming to begin this after the Summer half termto pilot the idea
