DS2 has had the last three descriptions in most of his reports!

Not actually a school report but I remember our very left wing law tutor marking an essay from one student with whom he did not agree politically -"you would have made an excellent colonial administrator"!
I don't think it was meant to be a compliment!

Morning Tipsy

Your DS is obviously showing great sporting prowess with all that energy

My DD2 has always been described as a 'nice cheerful child' while DS1 was always 'active' ! He turned 25 this week & he's still bouncing through life

You did make me laugh on the other thread about being a nanny shreddie knitter!

Unfortunately he also gets "poor concentration and struggles socially".

I'm still impressed with my PE teachers comment on me

" her effort in Games lessons is always consistent"

One way of putting it I suppose!

Another definition for the pot:

"capable" - we can tell he's bright but you wouldn't know it from his work...

I'm awaiting this year's reports with trepidation. Our son's last was "capable and very interesting" while our daughter has gone since Y1 from "quiet member of the class" through "beginning to contribute to group discussions" to last year's "tends to dominate in groups and must learn to listen to others". Since then she's added hormones to the mix and is absolute h*ll to live with - if anyone out there has ever considered fostering, feel free to pm me...please!!!

I was cracking up too!

On a serious note it is very difficult getting negative reports when DC are on scholarships or bursaries.

Why ? Excuse my ignorance but they wouldn't take the scholarship away would they? Surely you would have to have a terrible report.All children can have blips after all.

Yes well DS1 seems to have blips every term. It is in the contract that they may remove them if atitude/behaviour/academic progress is below par.
