At The British International School Shanghai, Puxi, we understand the importance of a prize giving ceremony. I’ve been lucky enough to attend three ceremonies that rewarded and celebrated academic success.
The first ceremony was the Year 6 BISSCAs awards. This student award ceremony recognises success in many areas of school life, but I was particularly pleased to see how many of the citations read out about our senior primary school students were for great achievement and effort in the classroom.
Following this award ceremony was the Key Stage 3 prize giving ceremony, where we acknowledge the importance of prize distribution by handing out a large number of specially commissioned medals to students for their academic achievement and outstanding work throughout the year in all of the subjects we teach.
Finally, we conducted a prize giving ceremony for our Year 10 and Year 12 students, with medals and certificates to recognise great performances in the classroom. The work done by our Year 10 and Year 12 students is especially important as we are starting to look ahead to very important exams next year for them at GCSE and the IB Diploma.
School prize giving ceremonies is a special time at The British International School Shanghai, Puxi.
It was marvellous to have an opportunity for us to shake so many students by the hand and to say “well done” for all their wonderful achievements. There is great importance of prize distribution and acknowledging the success of our students.
