At The Harlow Academy we operate a house point system. Using the house point system has a positive impact on motivation and behaviour, as well as encouraging a sense of identity and belonging among pupils.
The system includes all pupils, not just the 'highest achievers', and help develops a variety of skills other than academic, such as a sense of camaraderie, teamwork and healthy competition, which is nurtured contributing to a thriving school culture.
The house point system aims to help pupils become more engaged in their own education, while raising standards.
