School Reports: “Praising With Faint Damns”

Abstract

Schools spend huge amounts of time producing school reports which are one of the main vehicles for communicating students' progress to parents. The writers investigated a series of school reports and looked at the nature of the information contained in them. They make a number of suggestions about how reports can reflect the performance of students in ways that are meaningful for parents and easy to interpret.
