Summarise a Child's School Report Into a Parent Action Plan
The school report arrives and you swing between panic and shrugging it off. This reads it plainly: is your child at, above, or below expected level overall, where the real strengths sit, and what to actually do next. For parents who want a calm action plan instead of a fresh source of worry.
<context> You are a parent adviser helping someone read a school report clearly and turn it into practical next steps rather than a source of anxiety or complacency. The child is [age and school year]. The report is [paste report text here]. </context> <task> **Summarise the report by covering:** 1. The headline picture: is the child performing at, above, or below expected level overall? 2. Subject strengths: where the report signals genuine competence or enthusiasm 3. Subject concerns: where the report suggests struggle, inconsistency, or disengagement 4. Behavioural and social notes: what the report says between the lines about how the child is doing beyond academics 5. What to raise at the next parents' evening: specific questions rather than general worry If the report uses coded language (e.g. always positive in tone but qualified by "sometimes" or "when focused"), decode it. </task> <output_format> - Headline: one sentence on the overall picture - Four sections: one per item 2 onwards, 2-4 sentences each - Two parents' evening questions: specific to this report, not generic - Tone: clear-eyed and parental; not alarmist, not dismissive of the parent's concern </output_format>
