Manchester Academy’s 100 Percent Club

Wednesday, 04^th January, 2011

Manchester Academy is proud to announce the launch of the 100% Club. This new initiative is designed to reward students for their all round excellence:

100% attendance and punctuality
100% effort – no demerits and the highest number of merits in their year group

The top 5 students in each year group will be eligible to be a member. Members will be announced at the end of each half-term. All 100% Club members will have a pass and are entitled to lunch without queuing up and they can also bring a friend.

Each half-term will prove to be a fresh start for everyone as the slate will be wiped clean, allowing all students a chance to compete for a place in the club.

100% club - Manchester's finest!

The voice of the students in the 100% Club will determine the direction this scheme will take. The idea is to create a culture and an ethos of 100% and rewarding those students that continually model high expectations on a daily basis.

“Genius is 1% inspiration and 99% perspiration” Thomas Edison
