A Parents’ Guide to reporting at Christ’s College

Types of reports

We have four key report types at Christ’s College. These are all distributed via the Schoolbox Parent Portal.

1. Interim Progress Grades (IPGs) Interim Progress Grades are released every three to four weeks via Schoolbox. These are accessed on the Parent Portal Homepage via the Academic Reports tab.

IPGs are designed to give parents, students, and the pastoral team an indication of how a student is tracking across their subjects by looking at the trends in the report. They are useful in highlighting any changes in work patterns or understanding as a prompt for further discussions. They should not be treated as a definitive comment on a student’s academic success, but rather an indicator as to whether a student is on track or not.

There are three categories in an IPG:

Your son shows diligence, perseverance, and determination with his learning; he strives to be at his best.

Effort

Respect

Your son respects himself, others, and his learning environment.

Individual Learning Progress

The degree to which your son has advanced in his skills, knowledge, and understanding in this subject.

Each category is reported on a four-point scale:

Effort

Respect

Individual Learning Progress

Always Usually Occasionally Rarely

Always Usually Occasionally Rarely

Outstanding Commendable Acceptable Minimal

Effort and Respect grades are the major measure of Academic Engagement for the Christ’s College Diploma in Years 10–11.
