At

consideration of YCDI reflective journal, personal observation and any relevant
behaviour records. (SS students may have the option to self-nominate)
- The list of nominees is then
presented to the minischool staff for endorsement.
- When endorsed, the minischools
present their nominees to all staff.
- If not endorsed, the class
teacher feeds back to the student and works with them on future goal
setting.
