Praise Postcards
Boost Student Morale and Engagement with Customized School Postcards
Praise postcards and certificates are another way of rewarding student performance, effort, and good behaviour.
They are also highly effective for recognising achievement milestones, such as attendance or a certain number of merits/commendations.
Customized praise postcards offer a unique and effective way to recognize and motivate students. They provide a tangible and personal means of acknowledging achievements, fostering a positive learning environment, and building stronger relationships between students, teachers, and parents.
Your postcards can be made for a specific subject or year group within your school.
Praise Postcard Benefits
Show the Parents
Parents love to know how their children are getting on at school. This simple reward tool can help improve home-school communication and help to bridge the gap between teachers, students and parents.
Support Your Rewards Policy
Praise postcards can form part of your schools reward policy and become an important incentive for good behaviour and effort in the classroom. You could aim to send out one or two a week.
Personalised by You
Make your postcards personal. Take the time to explain in writing why you’ve sent the postcard to highlight and encourage good effort and behaviour. Rewarding via technology might not seem as thought out.
Recognising milestones with praise postcards
Praise postcards are also highly effective for recognising achievement milestones or key successes/acts. For example:
- achieving a particular level of attendance
- reaching a certain number of merits/commendations
- a particular act of kindness or reflecting the school’s values in actions
Research Shows
A study in a report by the DfE on ‘Behaviour Management Systems in Schools Rated Outstanding’, said that all of these schools utilised reward systems as a proven method of encouraging positive behaviour.
