NOTE: We are approaching the 1st monthly exams. Test Scopes will be given out later this week.


I hope students can work hard and do well. The start to the semester has been a bit messy and some students are not working to the level required of I1. Remaining in I1 or advancing to A2 is dependent upon performance in tests, in class, and with homework. The students are aware of this.


It may be that some students would do better if they were moved into I2. In the 4th grade the work is a little more difficult, as are the tests. The key consideration will always be - 'what is best for the student.'


If any parents wish to discuss with me at any time, please feel free to email me.
