What do the points go on?

Making things easier for you Making things easier for you. 60 staff are using the online app not SIMS Used it at home a fair bit and it is for sure a better system I think it is fantastic. The students love it and it is not really much hassle to put on (much better than praise points with the phone app, I do my Vivos all in one go, usually on a Wednesday during Bake off!) Great for offsite lessons and activities, you can reward points on the go. It's great and easy to use! I LOVE IT! And the app, oh how I love the app.  It's all really easy to use and I have it on my screen during the lesson, meaning that I just tick students off as I go and then click the magic reward button at the end of the lesson.  I really like it I have been using the Vivo app.

Vivo App for iphone/ipad is excellent,  use it as often as I remember Really easy to use accessible and convenient it's instant! Quick and easy to do on my mobile. So much simpler to do during or at the end of a lesson. Really easy, quick and the students enjoy being able to see the Vivo's added to their account from my phone/ipad. Instant rewards using Vivo App has has very much helped to motivate students, having a positive impact on progress, learning and outcomes. Only been using a very short time - but I love that it is so easy! It is quicker and easy to find a group It is really easy to use and quick to give instant feedback.  I use it all the time. I'm finding it pretty good using the VIVO App on my phone/ipad
