This year we are continuing to develop and use the @schoolapp to report to you about your child’s current learning. Information is now available about your child’s Reading, Writing, Maths, and this term’s P.R.I.D.E. focus on Partnership. You can see this information by opening the @schoolapp and clicking on the ‘Spotlight’ icon.
As well as this current learning information for every child, reports will be available on Tuesday 13th April for some children in Year 1-3 (depending on when students started school). The rest of Year 1-3 and all year 4-6 students will receive their first report at the end of Term 2.
