Reporting to parents, families and whānau
More information on National Standards can be found at: New Zealand Curriculum Online .
This section has guidance on reporting to your parents, families and whānau, in ways that are clear, meaningful, easily understood and that meet your community’s information needs.
The Practitioners' Reporting Group (PRG) was established to develop a resource for schools (Years 1- 8) for written reporting through an analysis of current reporting frameworks and practice. The report is now available.
This section highlights the varied and innovative ways schools are reporting to parents. Examples include student-led conferences, reporting online and learning stories.
The examples and templates of reports displayed here represent current thinking about some appropriate ways of reporting to parents. They all follow the guidelines laid down under NAG 2A, but are presented in a number of different formats. Previously published examples and templates are available on the Archived examples and templates page .
This section suggests ways to modify a school’s current reporting cycle.
National Standards policy documents
Policy documents have been produced by the Ministry of Education in response to queries from schools concerning aspects of National Standards which need clarification, particularly concerning the variation in school entry dates which affects the timing of OTJs and reporting. These papers can be found in the OTJ section of Assessment Online.
