We have made significant progress with the design of our new School Reports. We would like to take this opportunity to thank again all the parents/guardians that contributed to our survey. We learned a lot from the results, especially the additional comments that people submitted. Unfortunately, the new reports will not be ready until after Christmas.
We are going to utilise a very simple report card to communicate the results home. Due to logistics, there is no facility for any comment from a teacher. Third Year and Sixth Year parents/guardians will receive feedback at the upcoming P/T meetings. Report Cards were distributed to Third Years today and will be to the remainder of the student body early next week. Students will enter their grades in class with their teachers. Students will take them home and have them signed. They must then return one side to their Tutor who will store them and give them to the relevant Year Head thereafter for filing. Third Years must return theirs on/before Friday 29th November and all other students on/before Friday 6th December. Many thanks for your assistance with this temporary measure.
We look forward to our new reports for our next reporting period in early March 2020.
