Bromley Beacon Academy is part of the Jack Petchey Foundation Achievement Awards scheme: a reward and recognition initiative, which enables schools and youth organisations to celebrate the achievements of their young people as well as receive additional funding.
As a Jack Petchey Awards Bronze school, we are able to make three awards during the course of the school year to recognise students’ outstanding effort or achievements.
Staff are invited to nominate a student and then have the opportunity to vote for one of the nominations in the ballot.
Awards mean different things to different people. The Achievement Awards are not solely for academic achievement – they may be used to recognise a personal triumph for someone who has faced a challenge, a young person who has pushed themselves outside of their comfort zone or it may be an opportunity to recognise the outstanding efforts of a team player.
Each award winner will receive a certificate, pin badge and a book from Sir Jack himself. They will also choose how to spend a £300 grant to benefit their school or organisation.
All award winners are invited to attend one of our fun ceremonies to be presented with a medallion in front of their families, friends and VIPs.
