Reporting to Parents

At Treeby Primary School, reporting is a regular part of the teaching and learning process.

We believe in strong partnerships with parents/caregivers. Ongoing communication throughout the year is critical to ensure parents/caregivers are kept informed of their child’s progress by receiving timely advice at important stages in their child’s development. Teachers will inform parents/caregivers when a child is experiencing difficulties or learning problems, as soon as they become apparent.

The school will use a variety of methods for reporting students’ progress and achievement, ranging from informal reporting as needs or opportunities arise, to formal reporting undertaken in structured ways at certain times of the year across the school. Compass is the main communication tool between home and classroom teachers.

The Department of Education requires all schools to engage in two forms of formal reporting to parents about student achievement each year.

The following schedule has been developed for reporting to parents.
