The Warwick School

When your child joins The Warwick, we will consider primary school reports, Key Stage 2 results and our own screening test results and agree appropriate targets for your child with you. We believe it is important to review children’s progress continuously and to provide regular feedback for you and your child. In this way we can work together to ensure that students are being challenged and encouraged to achieve their best, as well as developing personally and socially.

In addition to marking homework and class work regularly, we hold formal examinations in May each year and students improve their revision and examination techniques through tests and assessments throughout the year. The teaching staff meet to review students’ progress formally each term. Students agree targets for the term with their form Tutor. You will be kept informed as follows

Year 7	October Parents’ Evening with Form Tutors, who give guidance on helping your child. They also discuss arrangements for particularly gifted children, where this is appropriate.

Additionally you are notified of your child’s teaching sets in individual subjects and of any changes to these. Teaching sets are kept under review and can be changed at any time during the year.

We ask you to sign your child’s Record Book each week and to monitor exercise books and homework as appropriate. If you become concerned about your child’s progress, we encourage you to contact the School Office to make an appointment with the Head of Year.
