Sharing Learning with Parents in the School

4Within the school  (P1-7) we report to parents formally three times per session – once per school term.

  • Aug-Dec:     Parents’ Evening with appointments 
  • Jan-March:  Written Report 
  • April-June:  Parents’s Evening with appointments

In addition this, there is usually a whole school open afternoon where Parents and Carers can visit their child’s classrooms and see the work that goes on there and each class will also invite Parents and Carers to visit their classroom for an interactive class based experience at least once per session.

Each year staff within the ECC plan a variety of Play and Stay sessions.  These sessions allow parents and carers or family members to visit the centre and take part in a range of experiences.

Home Learning 

Children are busy learning in school all day, and children learn at home via everyday activities and attendance at various clubs.  The subject of homework can be a very emotive subject , with different families wanting different things.  After taking different views into account and feedback from staff the Spotlights below summarise our current Family Learning policy.
