Rewards & Consequences

At St Albans Girls' School we have high standards of conduct so that all can learn in a safe, happy and secure environment

We recognise the value of rewarding hard work, contribution to the school community and hard work. Students are rewarded by;

  • Praise from their teachers and support staff
  • Phone calls and postcards home
  • The issuing of house points by subject and pastoral staff, and for contribution to sports, arts, drama and school events
  • Termly rewards assemblies involving the issuing of certificates and other prises, for academic success, contribution to school life and School Values, attendance, and house points
  • Rewards throughout the year for participation in individual school projects 
  • Annual Swimming Pool Party at the end of the school year for all members of the winning House

We also have high standards of conduct so that all students can learn and achieve their potential in a happy secure environment. Good behaviour is supported by;

  • Guidance from Form Tutors and teaching staff
  • Reports - Form Tutor, Director of Learning, Head of Key Stage, Positive, Organisational
  • Communication with Parents
  • Mentors (peer and staff)
  • Pastoral Support Programmes
  • External outreach programmes

Behaviour that disrupts learning, upsets others or compromises respect  towards staff at the school, will be addressed in a firm and fair manner. If detentions are issued both students and parents/carers will be informed by letter. The aim of any consequence is to inform and guide students in making better choices in the future, so that their time at St Albans Girls' School is productive and happy. 

Please see the attached Rewards and Consequences ladders which can also be found in the online Student Planner and on display in classrooms. The whole school Rewards and Consequences Policy can be viewed by clicking here.
