Class Auction

Key Indicators: 

Manage the learning setting to ensure access  to learning for all and to maximise learners' physical, social, cultural and emotional safety. 

Foster trust, respect and cooperation with and among learners 

Develop learning-focused relationships with learners, enabling them to active participants in the process of learning, sharing ownership and responsibility for learning. 

We run a classroom economy system. Each student has a job  (receptionist, banker, visual display artist, clerk etc) which earns them a monthly salary. They can also earn classroom currency by meeting class expectations, showing our 4 virtues, completing work to their best ability, completed homework etc. They must pay rent monthly for their desk and electricity. Students must bank their money and consider ways to save currency for the end of term class auction. 

There are two key aims of this system. 

1. As a behavioural incentive. 

2. To teach financial literacy.
