Students are involved in reviewing their progress with staff at regular intervals throughout their course.
In both November and March of Year 12, the College has subject progress review afternoons.
Students discuss their progress with subject staff and then their overall progress with tutors.
Parents and students will also be invited to attend parents’ consultations with staff in January of Year 12.
A tutorial progress review (without subject consultations) is completed in June/July of Year 12.
Subject staff and the tutor will provide a written report of progress at the end of Year 12.
In Year 13, subject staff will discuss progress with students at the parents’ consultations in October.
There will be a subject progress review round in December, followed by discussions with tutors.
Progress review information and written progress reports will form the basis of references for higher education
and employment, updated by staff as appropriate in Year 13.
Information about attendance, effort and estimated grades will be sent to students and parents after each progress review round.
Review paperwork will be sent to parents in the following way:
-
Parents registered with HillsMail will receive individual
copies by email.
-
Students with no parent registered with HillsMail will receive a single printed
copy of the review through the post to their parents at their home address.
-
Students will also receive a copy of the review through their College email.
If copies of reviews have not been delivered, parents are requested to first ask
their son or daughter for a copy. If that fails please contact the relevant tutor
who will send another electronic copy.
