There haven’t been enough threads from parents trying to interpret reports for my liking, so here’s one!
DD’s report had a lot to say about her excellent ‘learning attitude’ but nothing quantifiable about actual level of achievement or amount of progress since starting school or since the end of Reception, and nothing that gives an indication of whether she’s on track for her year group against the National Curriculum.
I have to say that I’m not actually worried about my daughter’s progress - I know she tries hard and am confident she’s at least meeting the required standard. However, I’ve read often enough on MN how parents have been given the view throughout the year that their child is doing ‘well’ (from interim reports and parents’ evenings), only to discover at the end of the year that they are actually ‘behind’ and have never been told. It’s clear to me that the format of the Y1 report could be more revealing. We have an opportunity to provide feedback on the report, and I’m tempted to suggest they provide something a bit more quantifiable. DH thinks I shouldn’t bother.
What sort of information do you expect from an end of Autumn report for Y1?
