A small thank-you means a lot. The kudos board makes it easy – and safe.
Pupils send a short thank-you to a classmate. The message is checked before it goes up on the class board.
How the kudos board works
Short and specific
Up to 140 characters – enough to say thanks for the help at break.
Named or anonymous
The pupil chooses whether their name is shown.
Up to 5 a week
So every thank-you still feels special.
Automatic check
Teasing and unkind words don't reach the board.
The class's shared board
Everyone in the class sees the approved thank-yous.
My thanks
Pupils see what they sent and the thanks they received.
For the class teacher
The class's teachers can read the class's thank-yous.
No editing
What was sent stays – nobody can change someone else's words.
Examples from the classroom
After group work
Pupils thank the one who got the group going.
The quiet help
An anonymous thanks to the one who helped without being seen.
Friday class meeting
The class looks at the week's thanks together on the board.
Security & compliance
Checked before it shows
Every message is checked automatically before the class can see it. If the check can't run, the message waits – it is never shown unchecked.
Own class only
Pupils can only thank pupils in their own class.
Anonymous to classmates
If a pupil sends anonymously, classmates don't see who it is from.
Can't be changed afterwards
A sent thank-you can't be edited or deleted from the browser.
Frequently asked questions

Can pupils write to pupils in other classes?
