water bottle into class with them.
Mentoring File/New TLC Format• Every child will have their own file – this file will stay with them up to
Year 6. • Your child will meet (during the school day) their ‘mentor’ – this will
either be the class teacher or the phase leader. • They will discuss, and set, targets and how they think they are doing. • Parents will then come to one of the evening sessions to briefly
discuss which targets your child has – also having an opportunity to look through the folder.
Other Useful InformationHow will you know if your child is doing as well as they should? • Teachers assess children all the time, sometimes formally (e.g.
assessment weeks) but more commonly through observations and feedback during lessons.
• In addition to the TLC meetings, Parents receive termly reports explaining what their child has achieved in the last term.
• The reports will no longer refer to levels. Under the new assessment framework children are assessed on how they perform in relation to expectations for children nationally in the year group they are in. When details of the National Assessment Framework are finalised we will ensure this is shared with parents.
Other Useful Information• Concerned? – Please contact your child’s class teacher, either in
person or through the homework diary. If the concern continues/is unable to be resolved please contact the Phase Leader.
• Parent Drop ins – these will happen on a fortnightly basis – teachers will be available in classrooms from 3.20 – 3.40 on the dates published. These are for general queries – if you have a concern that requires a more in-depth conversation - please use this time to make an appointment.
• Coffee Mornings – These are advertised on the newsletter and are are a good chance to meet other parents as well as make suggestions on how the school can support you/your child further. Some phase leaders may be available during this time.
