Your child should have brought their profile home today, along with the Curriculum Newsletter for their class. Please spend some time with your child looking at their targets, assessment sheets and work samples. It would be very helpful if, for homework, all pupils could spend some time updating their achievements. Parents should sign the profiles and return them to school by Friday. Many thanks.
