As a Pat My Back parent, you can login online and set goals for your child to work towards, motivate them to maintain their effort for a whole term or school year and reward them when they achieve these targets. Pat My Back also provides a systematic way for you to track your child's progress at school focussing on their positive achievements.
All children are eligible to win Rewards pledged by the school, however, by pledging your own rewards you can add an extra spur of motivation and show your child that their positive achievements at school are worthy of recognition by you, their parent.
Rewards can be anything from a computer game, ticket to the football or iTunes voucher, to a fun weekend excursion or a night off household chores. Rewards do not have to have a monetary value, but in order to motivate your child to achieve their best, it's important that they have a value to your child.
