Dangerousx: Missing information, cutting corners. What am I going to put on your head of year report?! I'll give you a clue it's below satisfactory, and it's above...well, it's not above anything. Can guess?

-Nowadays, 'vivos' are used instead of merits, as staff saw that pupils did not have much interest in certificates. Vivos are usually meant to be given out in groups of five, but as is found, they are nearly always alone. Vivos are the equivalent of gift vouchers which can be spent in some shops or online. Teachers never mentioned the value of a vivo, but compared with prices are actually quite negligable (saving up from Year 7 to Year 11 wouldn't be enough for some products). The record books are still issued as before, with merits (even though they were replaced) in the front and penalty points in the back. Teachers do not sign vivos in record books but assign them to students online. The vivo reward system does not apply to sixth formers, but neither do penalty points. Those who are in years 7 to 11 do get a card to pay using vivos and an internet account on [vivomiles.com] to keep track of their vivos.

 With the new system, everybody is required to have a book to track merits and penalties (called a record book, but some [[teachers]] instead refer to them as "your book", "merit book", "record card", "''<insert colour of book here>'' book", "penalty book" or "penalty point book" and possibly some others), if this is forgotten, a temporary book (never laminated and always a different colour to that of 'The Book' from the current term)is used just in case 'The Book' is required because if it is, and you don't have it on you, you (are supposed to) get an instant detention (though this is commonly not the case). If you lose your book you go to your Head of Year or your form tutor for a new one, and you get a penalty point. 'The Book' has two halves, the front half is merits, the back half is penalties. Unless you are a goody goody in every lesson, you are more likely to have the book signed in the back half. In the first term it was blue and in the second term it was green and laminated so it didn't fall apart. Then it was a vibrant yellow... whatever next? Well, we found out the answer.... another vivid blue!
 The books are always laminated without any names on the front and so you are supposed to write your name on, despite the fact it will have rubbed of within a few days.
