Semester 2 Progress Reports

March 2, 2018 / / Comments Off on Semester 2 Progress Reports

Dear all,

Over Semester 2 we have had a number of new students enrolled in the school. Those students that commenced from the start of the semester (week 17), up until week 24, will now require a Progress Report. If these students attend EAL they will also require a report from their EAL teacher.

We still have a bit of time before these reports are due, however please see the timeline below.

Wednesday, March 21:

Draft progress reports for new students who enrolled between Week 17-24.

(Y1-6 – to send reports to Melissa to edit)
Thursday, March 22: Melissa to pass back draft progress reports to teachers by the end of day. Teachers to make final edits by end of the day on Friday.
Monday, March 26: Office to print progress reports and pass to teachers with envelope.

Tuesday, March 27

( Week 28):

 Send home Progress Reports

If parents would like to meet to discuss their child’s progress report, please make a time to meet with them after school.

Please see a list below of those students that require a progress report. If for any reason you have already written a progress report for a student listed, please let us know. Any student that commences after week 24 will only receive the end of year report.

New Student List – Progress Reports

Any issues, please let John or myself know.

Semester 1 Progress Reports Oct 2019

Good Afternoon and Happy Friday!!

 

It’s time to start the preparations for Progress Reports!

We have attached the Progress Report Instructions outlining expectations and the timeline to support you in completing these reports.  Progress-Report-Procedures-Oct-2019-20

This year, the main change to the report  is that the EAL teachers will not be sending a separate Progress Report home. They will include a short comment into the main class Progress Report. Please see the guidance in the attached instructions for information about this.

John and I will go through these in detail with you at your next year level meeting, so please can we ask the Year Level Leaders to add this to the next meeting agenda. Kathleen will also meet with EAL teachers.

A reminder for teams to ensure that effort marks are moderated within the team.

 

Enjoy your weekend!

Primary April Progress Reports 2023

February 13, 2023 / / Comments Off on Primary April Progress Reports 2023
Good Morning!

Preparation for the April Progress Reports commence this week.

We have attached the Progress Report Instructions outlining expectations and the timeline to support you in completing these reports. For this report, teachers across all subjects (including specialist teachers) will be asked to provide an effort grade for each of the Approaches to Learning (ATL) Criteria.

Semester 2 April Progress-Report-Procedures and Guidelines.docx

Please make note of the following points:

  • EAL teachers please make note of the timelines set and pass comments directly to class teachers. These will be combined with the general comment.
  • Specialists teachers are also asked to share any comments necessary for students directly to teachers as this can provide a good picture of how the child is or is settling in for parents.
  • Moderation of effort marks is also scheduled into the timeline.
  • This is the first time we have done April Semester Two Progress Reports – Please see below key points and ideas of what can be included within the comment:

Below are some areas of focus you could include in the comment:

  • Return to school  – How they have settled back since holiday
  • ATLs towards achieving their aspirational goals and grades
  • Key areas of discussions within LC
  • Students involvement in CNY celebration activities

Do make sure that general comments from Semester 1 report do not conflict with what you write in your general comment for this report.

Please can we ask the Year Level Leaders to run through the guidelines in your team meetings this week.

If you have any questions, please inform Heads of Primary.

Class Parent Representative

  • Last Friday, the school held a meeting for the Class parent Reps. We ran through the expectations on class parent reps, as well s how to deal with challenging situations should they arise. Please see the ppt slides here…Parent Rep Meeting slides – pdf.  It would be good to look through them so you know the role of the Class Parent Rep. The most relevant slides are from slides 19-35, which run through possible scenarios for the class reps, and how they should respond.
  • Class teachers – you will see in slide 35, that we are asking all co-teachers to make contact with their two Parent Reps this week, to set up a Zomo meeting for straight after the Oct holiday. The main purpose of that meeting is to communicate expectations and needs for the coming Semester.
  • The Class Parent Reps list for each class is as follows: 2022-2023 Parent Volunteers (latest list)
