PUPILS at Workington’s St Joseph’s Catholic High School had fun on Monday when they used reward points gained during the year to bid for services from their teachers.

The form group with the highest points was St Agnes, who gained 26,898 points; and the highest group total was 6,750, achieved by Scott Auty, Aidan Tomlinson, Nick Wood, Dean Norris and Richard Teasdale, who won the services of headteacher Tom Ryan for a day.

Angela Cunningham, Laura Gibson, Michael Lee and Jessica Taylor each had the highest average per person in a group with 1,462.5 points each.

Lots of pupils - including Paul Bennett, Stephen Hewetson, Nathan Hodgson and Adam White - bid to have teachers come into their lessons and complete their work for them, such as Paul Bennett, Stephen Hewetson, Nathan Hodgson and Adam White.
