Plenty of schools already run a House system – the quiet rivalry that gets a whole school pulling in the same direction. Ten Points builds House Points on top of the points teachers are already awarding, so the competition looks after itself rather than becoming another thing to administer.
Every Reward point a student earns can count towards their house as well as their own record, turning individual recognition into something the whole school shares. Leaders can add houses as the school needs them, and see the leaderboard update in real time rather than waiting for someone to tally it up by hand – daily, weekly, monthly or across the whole year, so a form tutor and a head teacher can each look at the timeframe that means something to them.
Where a school has a School Display screen running in reception or a corridor, the house leaderboard lives there too, updating as points come in through the day – so a house doesn’t just win quietly, it wins in front of everyone.
It’s the same small moments – just with a scoreboard the whole school can see.
House Points are included on every Ten Points plan, from Teacher upwards.
For the longer version – how points link to your values, and how they reach the screens around your school – see House Points.
