The Social Impact Schools Award recognises the dedication of schools and their students in having a positive impact on the world.
Applying to be a Social Impact School and achieving the award provides several benefits:
The Social Impact Schools Award is based on students at your school carrying out social action such as volunteering, fundraising and raising awareness.
The award is run by SuperKind Education C.I.C., a 100% not-for-profit organisation dedicated to empowering young children to make positive change happen in the world around them, through the website SuperKind.org.
When students have engaged in a social action, of any type and in any location, the action can be registered by the student or teacher on SuperKind.org to earn an online badge. This process takes just a couple minutes and teachers can log students’ action on bulk.
To achieve the Social Impact Schools Award, a school must register an average of 1 social action per student over the course of an academic year. The award is a non-competitive accreditation and all schools who meet the award criteria across the academic year will be granted the award.
Please note, from time to time across the academic year, we may contact your school to request proof of the actions taken.
There are 12 categories of social action listed on SuperKind.
These are:
