How to write organisation and work completion comments for Years 7-8
- For Year 7, describe the new logistics: locker visits timed for recess and lunch, the right books for each day and reaching rooms on time. Packing the bag from the timetable the night before is a simple next step.
- Say what the diary or planner shows: homework written on the day it is set, assessment task due dates copied in, or blank weeks. Parents and carers can then look at the same pages together at the weekend.
- Many Year 7 students meet assessment task notifications for the first time. Describe whether the student noted the due date and worked in stages, and suggest planning backwards from the due date in the diary.
Watch out: Avoid using the comment to chase overdue work. Families need the pattern, such as incomplete tasks clustering in busy weeks, and the agreed plan; send the list of incomplete tasks separately, as your school's process allows.
Let frequency words carry the rating. Consistently suits reliably, independently or without being asked; Usually suits generally or with few reminders; Sometimes suits at times or when prompted. For Rarely, describe what is emerging and the support that helps, such as weekly check-ins with the year adviser. Show the behaviour you saw rather than restating the rating.
