Reporting to Parents/Whānau

Why report to parents and whānau?
​
​Schools report to parents and whānau for two key reasons.
  • Parents and whānau are key stakeholders in education and as such they expect meaningful information about their child’s progress and achievement.
  • Parents, families, whānau, and wider community have a valuable role to play in supporting their children’s learning at and beyond school.

At Tainui we have a strong belief that involving parents/whānau in their child's education is crucial.  
We have scheduled times we report but you can make an appointment to discuss your child at any time you choose.  
We only ask that if you feel you need longer than 5 minutes to discuss your child's education then we encourage you to make and appointment so a class teacher can dedicate quality time.
There are many ways to communicate with your child's classroom teacher:  email, phone call, facebook or face to face.
