Hello, my family and I just recently moved to the UK (earlier this year). We have enrolled our DS (he is in Y3) in a local primary school which has been rated excellent by OFSTED. We are satisfied with many things at the school, however...
we are surprised by the lack of feedback which is regularly provided to us as parents. Other than a meeting with the teacher one morning which I requested, we have not received any information about his progress in the school, or his individual lessons.
At his previous school in Europe, we received regular feedback from the teacher there. This included corrected homework and other assignments, comments in the "pupil's book," both positive and when he was in need of improvement, etc. We haven't even seen any corrected homework here.
This makes it difficult for us to reinforce and expand upon what he is being taught in school.
What I would like to know is if this minimal amount of feedback usual in the UK, or something which we need to be concerned about. I plan to discuss this more with the teacher, but would like to know what others' experiences are with this.
Thanks!
