Reports and monitoring

Full reports are written twice a year to parents, with separate grade reports issued on another three occasions during the year. We hold Parents' Evenings twice a year when parents may meet their child's teachers and discuss progress with them. Parents are also welcome to contact teachers, or the Headmaster, throughout the school year if there are matters they wish to discuss.

Each individual's progress is monitored closely and screening tests are performed annually. The school's Special Needs Policy covers children who may need extra help in any particular area. Able pupils are also given special attention and extension work.

Lessons for specialist help can be offered by our own specialist Dyslexia support teacher.
