Found my son’s year two report card and it’s hilarious

[PolarBearInDisguise]

I have name changed for this as I may well share it elsewhere.

DS is now 28 and while he was always fairly bright his report card from P2 (Scotland, aged six) is hilarious. I found it in the loft today and I am

He’s got As in most things, excelling in maths and English, allegedly loved singing and percussion (he did love shouting and hitting sticks off the ground, was it that?) but the section under religious and moral education is outstanding.

It reads, age 6, and I quote, “He has studied sacred books and celebrations of Christianity and Judaism and shows an awareness of moral values. He is an honest and caring child, and for development needs to study other world religions.”

Age six!

His own review of the year on the back page is much more age appropriate 😂 as the photo shows.

I know! Clearly he’s been a prodigy all this years and I just hadn’t realised 😂

that's so earnest!!

It was very gushing! I am in awe that a teacher of a class of 25 or so could be bothered to write all that with such gusto.

That's brilliant!

We found my husbands school jotters and on one page where they must have been learning about stranger danger the question was what should you do if a stranger approaches you. He wrote stab them and rub away! The teacher marked it with "not quite!"

Run away! Not rub!!!

When we were little and at school we were asked the question "What would you do if a man you didn't know offered you sweets to get in his car?" My friend's response was "Ask him to wait for me so I could go home and put on my best dress and shoes" Obviously the message re stranger danger needed some serious work on it, her mother was horrified at the response, unsurprisingly.

I saw my dads school report. It said that if he didn't make more effort, he'd be unemployable. He is one of the hardest workers I know, and didn't have a day of unemployment!

Maybe he took the report to heart :)

Currently in the process for writing report cards for my class, writing similar things. It's to do with how well they managed certain parts of the curriculum. I would guess this school had said the teachers had to include a statement about RME. I am sometimes very aware what I've written is a bit silly when it's for such a young child but what can you do.

I’m sure you are right @thatsnotabadger and at the time - when in the world of school reports etc - I don’t remember thinking it odd.

20 plus years later it is blooming hilarious.
