How do pupils earn points (Guilford Gold)?
Achievement points (Guilford Gold) are awarded for showing our School Values:
Equality – Integrity – Ambition.
Our achievement points are called Guilford Gold – this is the EGS currency which can be exchanged for Rewards through our school Swap Shop (which opens at lunch-time, and is located in the Guilford building). The rewards in our Swap Shop include: snacks, stationery, sporting goods and bigger rewards such as trips or money-off Year 11 Prom.
