In March we launched a Staff Praise button here at Bloxwich Secondary. This was to give staff the platform and opportunity to recognise the efforts and talents of their colleagues. There has been an overwhelming response to this new initiative, staff have engaged well and taken the time to ensure they acknowledge colleagues' efforts here at the Academy. There were just under 170 nominations in the first round and there are currently 110 in the second round with the deadline approaching.
Amy Hodgkiss was the lucky winner of the random prize draw from all of the first-round nominations and received an extra £30 voucher!
A huge well done and thank you to all the staff who were nominee’s or nominated. It was incredible to see all the lovely things written about each other and what goes in to making Bloxwich Academy a great environment to be a part of. A snapshot of the kind words and recognition is below...
“For being such an amazing LSA and going above and beyond to support both staff and students. On behalf of myself, 7X3 and 8Y2, thank you so much!”
“Thank you for working hard to embed mini whiteboards in your learning routines, and using these with all classes to check their understanding. It is great to see strategies from whole-school and department CPD in action, in your lessons. Well done and keep it up!”
“Thank you for all of your help with the submissions of the BTECs. Without you, I wouldn't know what I would have done. I really appreciate all of your hard work with everything"
