Reporting student progress to Students

Our belief

Reporting student progress to parents is a highly professional component of our job. It is a measure of our professionalism as to how well, and how clearly we can talk with parents about the learning progress we have helped their child make. If a child fails to make progress we believe we must accept some of that failure in that we have lacked the ability to engage the child, use the right methods or sequence work in the right manner. A child should not be blamed for failure.
