For School Managers

The system is user friendly so doesn’t require extensive training or ICT support, and enables staff to effortlessly reward students individually or in groups by crediting their account with Vivo’s via their smart phone, the website, or redeemable vivo paper credit vouchers.

School Managers can decide on the annual or termly rewards budget and input the Vivo equivalent into the system. Then establish the criteria that you want to reward (or penalise) against, and how many “Vivo’s” each behaviour or achievement is worth.

You can choose from the extensive catalogue of rewards you want to appear in the online shop including charity donations and it is even possible to upload your schools own items for example prom tickets, skip-the-lunch-queue vouchers etc. Plus you can allocate the maximum budget of Vivo’s that each teacher will automatically be given to award each week

Students enjoy redeeming their Vivo’s and the system enables School Managers to view in real time reward statistics, export leagues, and track staff usage to ensure rewarding transparency and fairness.

For Teachers

Schools can use the Vivo Miles system to encourage healthy competition between students. With more traditional certificates and even trophies up for grabs for the best performers it is a fun and more up to date way to engage and stimulate students to go the extra mile.

Many schools are successfully encouraging a healthier school day by using Vivo as an extra incentive to change behaviour. This can be by choosing a healthier option at lunch or by taking part in physical activities they otherwise might not have tried. As part of the government’s every child matters initiative Vivo links directly into ‘be healthy’ and statistics have shown it can make a real difference to the health of young people who feel more motivated to make the healthy choice.

The system is easy to set up and use. Unique to the scheme is the Vivo rewards card, which every student gets. The card and the scheme’s currency – the Vivo – go beyond conventional stickers and stars to offer a real-life vehicle for financial learning

For Pupils

The Vivo rewards card is given to every student and acts like a bank card. The card and the scheme’s currency – the Vivo – go beyond stickers and stars and provides the rewards you want.

Here’s more about how it works

There are many ways you can pick up the points. You could be awarded Vivos for completing an outstanding piece of homework, attending extra-curricular activities or for continually keeping your planner up-to-date; whatever criteria your school decides.

Your school might even add their own rewards to the catalogue such as prom tickets or “skip-the-lunch-queue” vouchers, or there’s our ever-popular charities that you can donate your Vivos to.

For Parents

The Vivo Parental Engagement Platform has been designed to positively “engage and inform” parents. With your own personal Vivo account you can view information relating to your child’s rewards. Everything is presented in a way that is clear and easy to understand and delivered in a format you choose. With the option to receive updates by email, information can be pushed to you in real time or on a periodic basis, and you can access your account wherever you have access to an internet enabled PC.

Vivo is designed in such a way that it looks and feels to students a lot like their first bank account. With the currency being the’ Vivo’ and good old fashioned hard work being the way to earn ‘Vivos’ it presents a unique opportunity to teach some important personal finance lessons. Saving up for something over a longer term, earning interest, budgeting and managing an account are all covered by the Vivo system.

You can help boost your childs learning by setting targets with associated rewards in the Vivo parent module. Making a simple pledge to add that extra level of incentive (e.g. “earn 200 Vivos and we will take you to the cinema”), or matching the school Vivo-for-Vivo to boost your child’s motivation is simple to do and incredibly effective.
