How will this reward chart support your child's learning?
This reward chart was created by a primary-school teacher with the purpose of encouraging learning at home. It complements TheSchoolRun's Learning Journey programme, but can also be used on its own. This is a colourful, printable chart that includes a section for comments, so that children and parents can reflect on progress made.
