Reporting Timetable In the Kindergarten each child receives an end of year report. Access to each child’s learning journey is available through Tapestry – our online learning journal. In the Infants’ School your child will receive a written report each term following the schedule set out below. The end of year report is a summative celebration of your child’s learning journey over the academic year.

Parents’ Evening In the Kindergarten, parents/carers are invited in to meet their child’s key person to discuss their child’s progress. In this meeting we look at each child’s learning journey and discuss their development and learning. In the Infants’ School, parents’ evenings are a time when you can meet the class teacher to discuss your child’s progress and attainment. The specialist teachers are also available to talk to Infants’ School parents/carers during these evenings. The dates and appointment request forms will be sent out via DUCKSPost. You will receive a written confirmation the week prior to the parents’ evening. Policies DUCKS and Dulwich College have policies and procedures that cover all areas of the Early Years Foundation Stage and Key Stage 1.
