Three-Way Learning Conferences

The teachers are looking forward to meeting with you and your children over the next two weeks for the three-way learning conferences.  On 9th June a note was sent home to all families explaining the changes to the mid-year report.  The greatest difference is that teachers will not be reporting on student achievement based on the A to E scale, they will, however, present you with information about:

  • Engagement during the Learning From Home period
  • Current levels of achievement in Reading, Writing and Mathematics
  • Learning goals for Reading, Writing and Mathematics

Your input is very welcome during the conference and will be added to the meeting record, so please come prepared.  In the days following the conference a final copy will be emailed to you via Compass.
