Manor Academy PRS & House System

The Manor CE Academy Positive Rewards System (PRS) and House system aims to ensure that all students are known and cared for as individuals to enable them to make outstanding progress.

The PRS is based on student achievements such as merits collected, attitude to learning, attendance and service to the school and looks to celebrate and reward individual success. The list of rewards available to individuals continues to grow and current includes ‘merit lead’ and special award badges, school based privileges, the weekly Principal’s Awards, a merit shop and rewards events/trips.

The students join the four House names to be Abbey; King’s; Stuart; and Wentworth. All four have historical links to the academy. Lord Wentworth invited the then King, Charles 1 (House of Stuart) to stay at King’s Manor which is near St Mary’s Abbey. King’s Manor was, from 1813 to 1922, home to Manor and it was this historic, city centre building from which the academy first took its name.

Each House elects a student leadership team which consists of House Captains, Sports Captains and Charity Captains.There are a wide range of House events throughout the year, including collective and form worship tasks, house competitions and sporting events. 

Key factors to school life such as Merits earned, Attitude to Learning and Attendance are also considered when awarding the annual House Championship. The victorious hold the Championship Trophy and celebrate their success with a rewards event.

All of which are aimed to help each and every student at Manor CE Academy to ‘live life to the full’, acknowledge their success and celebrate achievement.
