How you will be receiving feedback on your

child’s progress?

1) Progress Reports (online)

– Rubrics to indicate key learning outcomes

behavioural issues in which the child could improve

2) Mid-year and end of year result slips (from P2 EOY)

– Marks and/or grades to show your child’s attainment

– Overall qualitative comments on your child’s learning


How does it benefit my child?

styles

performance with that of others

Give encouragement and

support in areas where the child needs improvement

Give more homework than

necessary, or as a punishment

Praise your child for any

progress made
