Actions
Improving feedback to parents
We'll continue to improve how we communicate with you about your child’s progress. We have introduced three reports, one per term, to provide more regular feedback to parents. The format has also been standardised across the school so parents get consistent feedback as their child progresses.
How to support your child's learning at home
We'll continue to broaden our programme of parent workshops and presentations at monthly PSG meetings.
