Schedule: 

Term 2- Student Led Conferences
Term 3 -Parent / Teacher / Student Interviews
Term 4 -Written Reports include a Learning Summary Report and the Reflective Journal

We will make arrangements for new families enrolling in our school (at any level) to meet with their child/ren’s teacher to discuss learning expectations for the year.

Parents can request interviews throughout the year by contacting teachers directly at the school.  We welcome parent requests to meet and discuss their children’s learning progress.

Learning Portfolio - Educa:

Every child has an online Learning Portfolio which we use to share and report on student learning and progress.  This online portfolio will provide ongoing real-time reporting, providing a secure and interactive environment where teachers and parents/whānau can share learning stories, photos and videos, and collaborate on student learning.  The platform provides opportunity for students to also reflect on their progress, set goals and celebrate special 'aha’ moments in their learning.  Through the use of a Learning Portfolio children are taught skills of reflection, self-assessment and goal setting.  This helps them become more articulate about their own learning. You are able to access your child’s portfolio via your home or work computer, or via the Educa App available on both iphone and android. 

Progress and Achievement Folder:

Every child will have a Progress and Achievement Folder in which learning progress will be tracked across all learning areas of the NZ Curriculum.  It will include ‘progressions’ for learning across all year levels.  This will show families the learning progress of their child over time.     

Teacher Assessment Practices

Teachers use a range of sources to make an over-all ‘teacher judgment' about your child’s achievement.  These include: observations, interviews with children, comparing a child’s learning example with an exemplar and formal testing.
