Your child’s achievements
Feedback, assessment and planning
Assessment is an essential part of e昀昀ective teaching and
links to the intent of our curriculum policy - to know where
children are and where they need to be. We have both formal
and informal modes of assessment to ensure children have
acquired the knowledge they need and identify any gaps.

Feedback
The purpose of feedback is development. We point children in
the right direction, but urge them to 昀椀nd and correct their own
mistakes. We prompt them towards their next step to deepen
their understanding, broaden their knowledge and put them in
control of their development.
Parental engagement
We value the contribution of parents and carers and work
together to achieve the best outcomes for every child.
Throughout the year, we hold many events where parents and
carers can come and share in their child’s learning. We also
hold Parent/Teacher Consultations in the Autumn and Spring
Terms, along with our ‘Exhibition Evening’ in the Summer Term.
In addition, each class has an ‘At Home’ session each week,
where the classroom is open to parents and carers, giving you
an opportunity to look at your child’s work, displays in the
classroom and to speak informally to the classteacher.
