The background to Seesaw - a brief overview

Thank you to all our parents who came to the two sessions that gave the context behind the Seesaw reporting development. Below is one of the images from the presentation that I gave that gives a good summary of how the Seesaw journal tool fits with our developing collaborative teaching and learning practice that gives an appropriate level of responsibility and ownership to the learner for their learning.

Ultimately, a reporting process is meant to example the depth and breadth of the curriculum in a way that is engaging and accessible for both the learner and the parent. It should provide authentic examples of the learning process that give evidence of your child's learning progress and achievement in respect to the key areas of the curriculum framework (learning areas, values and key competencies). This allows both the learner (your child) and the teacher to celebrate and share their learning journey with you and gives you the ability to share your feedback with them in a meaningful and ongoing way.
