Students at Our Lady and St Bede Catholic Academy in Stockton are celebrating after receiving special awards in recognition of their outstanding attendance and commitment to school.

The academy recently recognised five students whose dedication to attending school regularly has helped them make the most of every opportunity both inside and outside the classroom.

Celebrating Commitment and Improvement

Each of the five students was recognised for a different attendance achievement, with awards celebrating everything from consistently high attendance to significant improvements over time.

Staff praised the students for their determination, resilience and commitment, highlighting the positive impact that good attendance has on learning, achievement and personal development.

A Remarkable Achievement

A special congratulations goes to Chloe, who achieved an incredible 100% attendance throughout the whole of Year 7 and has continued that outstanding record into Year 8.

Maintaining perfect attendance over such a long period is a fantastic accomplishment and demonstrates exceptional dedication and commitment to school life.

Bigger and Better Rewards

To make the occasion even more memorable, each of the five attendance award winners received their own Amazon Echo as a surprise reward.

The prizes reflect the academy's commitment to recognising and celebrating student success, with rewards designed to encourage and inspire pupils to continue striving for excellence.

Encouraging Every Student to Succeed

The attendance awards highlight the importance of showing up, working hard and making the most of every school day.

Staff hope the recognition will inspire other students to continue improving their attendance and take advantage of the exciting rewards and opportunities available throughout the year.

Everyone at Our Lady and St Bede Catholic Academy is incredibly proud of the five Attendance Superstars and the positive example they have set for their peers. Congratulations to all of the award winners on their well-deserved recognition.
