COMMENTS: House Points 1=#E knows what is needed to collect positive points and at times has a burst of receiving them, but still has a relatively low total. #E needs to demonstrate these positive attitudes as a matter of course, rather than when #e is reminded to. 2=#H behaviour is very good, gaining over 150 positive points. 3=#E has gained over 150 positive points throughout this year, of which #e should be proud and now needs to aim to beat #h collection next year. 4=As I write this, #e has not quite yet reached 100 positive points. #E knows what is needed to receive this and should set this as an area for improvement next year. 5=#H behaviour is excellent; this is quantified in #h achieving over 150 positive points and zero negative as I write this. 6=#N has gained an amazing over 200 positive points at the time of writing, well done!

Behaviour in form time has been good, although not always fully involved in our activities. COMMENTS: Organisation details 1=#E has high standards and to this end #e is always well prepared, organised and works hard. To achieve more highly though, #e needs to still make further steps, showing ability to work independently at home, extra to work set by #h teachers. #E is particularly proud of #h effort and work in #subjects, #subjects, and #subjects. #E does also feel #e needs to improve #h effort in #subjects. 2=#H organisation and behaviour are excellent; #e really does do everything that would be expected of a good pupil. To further improve, I would suggest that #e needs to do over and above what is asked of #m, to study and do extra work on the areas that #e feels that #e can improve in, particularly in the key core subjects. There are plenty of online resources now as well as the more traditional study books, there is no time like the present to start preparing for #h success in year 11. 3=#H attendance, punctuality, organisation and behaviour have all been very good and will stand #m in good stead for the new challenges that await #m next year. I am confident that #e will achieve highly, carrying on the way that #e treats all aspects of school life. 4=#E is always well prepared, organised and works hard. To achieve more highly though, #e needs to still make further steps, showing ability to work independently at home, extra to work set by #h teachers. #E is particularly proud of #h effort and work in #subjects and #subjects. #E does also feel #e needs to improve #h #subjects and #subjects. 5=There are still times when #h behaviour leaves a bit to be desired, in particular #h reaction to discipline procedure. #E does need to take responsibility for #h actions, when #e knows deep down that #e has made a mistake. #E is particularly proud of #h work in #subjects and #subjects, yet realises that #e needs to increase #h effort in #subjects and #subjects. 6=With the odd notable exception, #h behaviour has continued improving, but can still improve further, particularly in terms of work rate, keeping it high and consistent. #H organisation with #h planner, equipment and homework is improving and #e will have to continue this and try to do this more independently as #e goes through high school. By #h own admission, #e needs to up #h game when it comes to homework. 7=#E is pleased with #h work in #subjects, however #e has identified #subjects as an area where #e doesn't put the required effort in and has set #s a target of improving in this key subject. 8=#E is rightly pleased with #h work in #subjects. By #h own admission, #e does not show enough effort in #subjects and this is a target for #m to improve next year. 9=#E is pleased with #h work in many subjects, trying #h best and listening intently, but has particularly enjoyed #subjects and #subjects. By #h own admission, #e could work harder in #subjects and participate in lessons more by being more vocal. It is hard when a person is quiet by nature to push themselves forward but #N is capable and it is an important life skill. 10=#E is well organised in terms of equipment, but needs to improve sorting out homework. #E is rightly pleased with #h work in #subjects.

By #h own admission, #e does not show enough effort in #subjects and this is a target for #m to improve next year. COMMENTS: Responsibilities y7 1=#N has taken part in no extra-curricular clubs within school. These are great ways to discover new interests and skills as well as make new friends. I'd suggest that #e looks at some of these next year and maybe a residential visit if possible. 2=#E understands the importance and benefits of extra-curricular activities where #e has represented school at #sports. #E has some talent in the sporting area and to broaden #h horizons, I'd suggest that #e looks at maybe an ambassadorial role in school, #e has already been a credit to the school as a Young Leader. 3=I know #N enjoys #sports, but other than inter-house #e has attended no extra-curricular clubs within school. These are great ways to discover new interests and skills as well as make new friends. I'd suggest that #e looks at some of these next year and maybe a residential visit if possible. 4=#N has not taken an active part in extra-curricular activities. I would suggest that #e looks at some of these next year and maybe a residential visit if possible. #E has a friendly manner and a good sense of humour; I think that, as #e matures, #e could work well with the younger pupils. 5=#N would like to become a young leader, an idea which I highly encourage. To start this process I would suggest #e take an active part in extra-curricular activities. These are great ways to discover new interests and skills as well as make new friends. 6=#E takes part in an admirable range of extra-curricular activities, and these experiences along with #h confidence in speaking, I would suggest an ambassadorial role in school or residential visit if possible. 7=#E hopes to be a house captain, which would suit #h interest in sport. To achieve this admirable target, #e needs to show maturity and empathy for others consistently around school. 8=#N has been a valuable befriender to the younger pupils, a role which is both admirable and greatly appreciate. #H should look to continue a role of responsibility next year. 9=#E has been involved in extra-curricular clubs and I would encourage a greater participation in these next year, they are a great way of developing confidence and making new friends. COMMENTS: Responsibilities y8 1=#E has offered to help with many class duties, roles which are much appreciated by myself and also has taken part in #sports, extra to PE. I would also suggest #e consider the many extra-curricular opportunities on offer at Shelley and take part in some of these. #E likes #h sport and should look at these clubs but also try other areas too and see what interests #m, these are great ways to make new friends and settle in quickly at a new school. 2=#N has taken an active part in school life, something that I always like to see. #E has been a good befriender to the year 6 pupils, I hope #e gets to continue with similar opportunities at Shelley. 3=All I can suggest to #N is to carry on with what #e is doing, taking part in school life through #h sport and support roles, working hard. If anything, relax a little and develop further #h confidence, realising that making mistakes is a strategy to learn and improve when channelled correctly. 4=#E also takes a full part in the extra-curricular side of school, particularly #sports. Also, #e should be proud of #h role as a young leader. I am sure #e will continue in this vein at Shelley, but #e should keep in mind the importance of #h studies too, especially at this stage of #h schooling. 5=#E has offered to help with many class duties, roles which are much appreciated by myself but has done very little outside of this. I would suggest #e consider the many extra-curricular opportunities on offer at Shelley and take part in some of these. There are opportunities in many areas, #e should see what interests #m, these are great ways to make new friends and settle in quickly at a new school. 6=All I can suggest to #N is to carry on with what #e is doing, taking part in school life through #h sport, working hard and just realising that even if #e doesn't always get the reward that #h hard work may deserve, #e will do over the long term. #E has been an asset to this school and will continue to be one at Shelley. 7=#N has not really taken part in too much else that school offers outside of the classroom. As at KMS, Shelley offer a range of extra curricular activities and visits and I hope that #e considers some of these, they can really enhance a child's time at school and particularly help them fit into a new environment.
