Assessment – Formative and Summative
Assessment is an integral part of teaching and learning and pupils are continuously assessed in an informal way as part of the daily work of the school. At other times standardised tests may be used to assess pupils’ progress and to diagnose learning difficulties in children.
Arrangements for Reporting to Parents
At Greengairs parent/teacher meetings will be held twice yearly when teachers will discuss children’s progress with their parents. The first meeting of parents and teachers will be between August-October and the second meeting will be in February. Parents will receive a written report in June. At the meeting, parents and teachers will discuss the child’s progress and his/her development needs.
Parents are welcome to discuss their child’s progress at other times. Those wishing to do so should contact the Head Teacher to arrange a mutually suitable time.
