Involving Parents - Termly Progress Review

[Guest]

We have parent interviews in the Aut and Spring terms and then reports in the summer. I would like to come up with a proforma to discuss with parents and then send home for their views on their child's progress, are you pleased with your child's progress, what do they like doing best at school/home, changes in likes/dislikes etc. Does anyone have something they use? I wondered if I should summarise where their child is in some way - perhaps just which age range of the development matters they are working on? Or is it just enough to talk through the profile?? I want to keep them informed but not to generate too much extra work. I thought the form could then go in the journals to show how parents are involved.

Any ideas would be great. Thanks
