For staff
Charitable recognition is recorded with the same quick staff workflow as other Wells — building evidence of service culture for leaders and governors.

Charitable Well
Kindness, service, and community spirit.
The Charitable Well recognises generosity, service, and care for others — especially those who need support. It connects everyday kindness with charity drives, service projects, and Catholic Social Teaching values of solidarity and the common good.
What this Well consists of
The Charitable Well gives staff shared language for experiences beyond a single subject grade — clubs, corridors, liturgy, playtimes, and community life.
- Kindness in words and actions
- Helping others without being asked
- Charity, fundraising, and service projects
- Care for vulnerable or new members of the community
- Looking after shared spaces and resources
Examples staff might recognise

- Helped tidy the classroom without being asked
- Supported a charity or service initiative
- Welcomed a new pupil or visitor warmly
- Showed compassion when someone was upset
- Volunteered for a role that serves others

What the Charitable Well does
For pupils & families
Pupils see kindness tracked as part of their whole-child story. Kindness Garden (Five Wells Journey) gives a visual home for charitable participation when schools enable that module.
For leaders
Review Charitable patterns alongside other Wells to ensure service and kindness are celebrated consistently — not only during one-off events.
