Frequently asked questions

How does a whole-class reward system like golden time work?
A whole-class reward system has the class work together toward a shared treat — often called 'golden time' (free choice or fun time), but it could be extra play, a film afternoon or a class party. The class earns points, marbles in a jar, or minutes for the behaviours you want to encourage: kindness, effort, good listening, tidying up, lovely teamwork. The strength of it is that it builds team spirit and positive peer encouragement — children remind each other to do the right thing because they're working toward something together — and it keeps the focus firmly on rewarding the good rather than punishing the bad. To get the best from it: award points generously and 'catch them being good', keep the goal achievable so the class experiences regular success, and avoid taking points away (which sours the whole system and can feel unfair to children who were behaving). Pair it with specific praise so the class knows exactly what earned the reward.
