Guest Posted June 10, 2003 Posted June 10, 2003 Hi i'm new to this and i'm so pleased to find people discussing the profile! We are using it as a report at my school but will be sending a letter of explanantion to parents. Does anyone else feel that so many of the boxes especially PHSE are not yes or no answers. I feel so many of my children may be beginning to understand other cultures and views but are certainly not fully understanding. Sue
Steve Posted June 10, 2003 Posted June 10, 2003 Hi Sue - Welcome to the Forum and thanks for posting . This is always a problem, isn't it, when you try to turn a complicated thing like a human being into a series of tickboxes? I know that whether I can or can't do something often depends on how long it is since I had a decent cup of tea, so how I'd measure up to being assessed and graded via a yes/no checklist would vary wildly from hour to hour... But I don't have much to do with the profiles yet, so I can't really respond knowledgeably. What do other people think? I know it's gone quite quiet in the forum the last couple of weeks, and I've been told it's largely because you're all up to your ears in profiles and reports...
Guest Posted June 10, 2003 Posted June 10, 2003 I do agree that children may be working towards rather than acheived these points. We have used the comments boxes to say can do such and such (That relates) so that anyone reading it can see that the child is on the way.
