ACHIEVE Rewards
Every day at Furze Platt we aim to reward students under every aspect of our ACHIEVE values. Each term we highlight one particular aspect; this term is Endurance.
This half term’s House competition is a Turing Maths Challenge, in honour of Alan Turing.
· Within each year group, the four Houses will compete against each other in teams of 4.
· The Turing Challenge will take place during tutor time in a classroom with one of the Heads of House.
· There will not be an audience.
· The winners will win prizes and lots of House points:
· Selected finalists will all get 10 points each.
· Winners of the final will all get 25 points each.
· Winning House will get 1000 points, 600 points for 2nd place, 400 points for 3rd place and 200 points for 4th place.
The winning team will also win some sweet treats!
· The individual with the highest score in each year group will win a £10 Amazon voucher, + 60 House points.
'Pupils’ relationships are shaped by the ACHIEVE values of the school, which stands for 'Ambitious, Collaborative, Happy, Integrity, Endurance, Versatility, Excellence’.' Ofsted 2021
Above all, our vision is that members of the Furze Platt community consistently ACHIEVE, through being:
Ambitious Furze Platt students have high standards and high expectations. They see learning and personal growth as important attributes for life, not just as a means to qualifications, further education, university study and successful careers. They have the intrinsic enthusiasm and desire to achieve their personal best. They use this also to motivate others, and to create a climate of shared endeavour, both in the classroom and through wider learning opportunities. |

All enjoy a common sense of purpose, with everyone being able to play to their strengths and contribute to community wellbeing. Furze Platt students take joy from growing and succeeding together. |
|
Integrity Furze Platt students always accept responsibility for their actions and choices. They consistently hold themselves, individually and collectively, accountable for their own success and that of others. They are honest, trustworthy and fair in all they do, whether it be in the classroom, on the sports field or in the wider community. They respect and take care of their current and future environments. |
|
Endurance Furze Platt students understand that ‘every accomplishment begins with the decision to try', but that success does not always come easily or immediately. They have the confidence to see failure as part of the learning journey, and to use their reflectiveness and resilience to learn from past mistakes. Our students learn and communicate confidently, and help develop confidence in others. |

Versatility Being Ambitious, Collaborative and Happy, having Integrity and showing Endurance and Versatility all lead to: |
