Reporting
As parents, it is important that you know what your child is doing in school and know how they are progressing in relation to curricular benchmarks.
The cornerstone of our Reporting policy is our Learning and Achievement Profiles. Contained within the profile is:
- A termly overview of the key areas that will be taught in that coming term. Over that term, teachers highlight these areas as either ‘tickled pink’ (something that has been achieved) or ‘green for growth’ (still working on it) so you can see how your child is progressing
- A chronology which records all achievements for the year (e.g. Star Writer; home achievements; certificates achieved)
- Examples of pupils work with ‘celebration’ stickers so you know what makes that work a success
- Celebration stickers for when your child demonstrates our school values
- Celebration stickers marking achievements at home.
These profiles will be shared at 6 different points in the school year either at parents’ appointments, open afternoons or by sending them home (to then be returned).
Summative Assessment
At the end of the year, parents receive a brief end of session report which gives details on exactly where your child is at in relation to nationally expected milestones (i.e. whether they are ahead of milestones, on track or need further time and support).
