Is the Transition Learning and Development Statement the same thing as a kindergarten report card?
The Transition Learning and Development Statement is not a report card. It is designed to be a descriptive document written about a child’s individual strengths and achievements. The Statement has been developed to provide valuable information for families and schools, particularly Prep teachers, to help them build relationships, identify how children can best be supported as they transition into school and plan appropriate learning programs. The information provided in the Statements will not be used to grade children or compare them to a ‘benchmark’, ‘norm’ or ‘standard’.
