All young people are assessed informally throughout the school year. Ongoing discussion on progress allows young people and their teachers to identify their strengths and areas for improvement.   A variety of assessment methods are used to enable staff to pass on information to parents and carers about the progress of their child. 

Dates of all parents’ meetings and the schedule for issuing written reports is included in the school calendar which is issued at the start of term and is available on the website.   

In line with GIRFEC and Glasgow’s ‘Every Child is Included & Respected’ policy, all of our pupils have a Wellbeing Assessment and Plan (WAP) and some also meet the criteria to have a Co-ordinated Support Plan (CSP).

In order to plan effectively, significant emphasis is placed on gathering a full picture of individual needs. This information is gathered from as wide a range of contributors as possible including parents and family, pupils, friends, college, work experience. 

We work in partnership with all involved to ensure that each WAP / CSP has relevance, reduces the impact of barriers to learning and allows for clear progression in learning to be made.

WAP learning outcomes focus on:

• communication
• personal & social development
• functional numeracy skills

There will be obvious connections between home, school-day & the wider world.

If you have any concerns about your child’s progress do not hesitate to contact the school at any time.
