Full written report
All pupils will receive an annual full written report. For each subject, teachers comment on key strengths and areas for development. Additionally, pupils will receive feedback relating to attainment and approach to learning, and an overall comment from their Class Teacher and Phase Leader. Where it is a pupil’s first or final report in their Junior School journey, a Headteacher comment will be made in place of a Phase Leader comment. For pupils in Rainbow, written reports are shared at the end of the Summer Term.
Grade sheets
Students in Years 1 to 5 will also receive a grade sheet each Summer Term, whereby teachers give feedback on attainment and attitude to learning in the core subjects (Maths, English and Science). These statements mirror those in the full written report.
Parents’ evenings
Parents’ evenings take place twice a year and are an opportunity to discuss strengths, areas for development and progress. As well as this, parents with children in Years 1 to 6 will also be offered the opportunity to meet with subject specialist teachers once in the academic year.
Valedictories
In Year 6, students will receive a valedictory at the end of the Summer Term which celebrates their individual highlights and successes in the Junior School.
Questions or concerns
Your child’s class teacher should always be your first port of call for any questions or concerns. Class teachers share their email addresses with parents, so do email them directly and, if required, a suitable time for a phone conversation or meeting can be arranged. For any academic questions, please contact Ms Debs Lansdown (Deputy Head Academic) via email: dlansdown@habsgirls. org.uk. For any pastoral matters, please contact Mrs Ursula Elliott (Acting Assistant Head, Pastoral) via email: uelliott@habsgirls.org.uk.
