Learning Reports

Friday 22nd May


Dear Parent and Caregivers,

We are pleased to be sending home our new Learning Reports for you to look at and discuss with your children over the next few days. You will notice that the contents page states that there will be a Year 1 Letter/Sound sheet and a FOS Diagnostic Spelling sheet. Please note that these sheets will only be in your child's learning report if applicable.

There are sections of these reports that require you or the children to make comments. You may get your child to write or scribe for them. Ask them to think about what they learned, enjoyed or found particularly memorable about the learning. We encourage you to comment about your child's learning, what you are proud of and any ideas for next steps. Please remember to bring your child's learning report to your meeting.

We look forward to meeting with you, and your child, next week to discuss these in greater detail.

Kind Regards

The Junior Team
