Once again, we are updating Individual Education Plans for all pupils. The IEP targets reflect general key skills, which will be of use across the whole curriculum.

The targets are not for specific subjects. Subject targets are set throughout the year and are noted in this term’s Annual Review reports.

Pupils have helped to devise their own targets with Form teachers, LSAs and, in some cases, Care Staff.

We set 3 targets per term.

Targets may be drawn from the four following broad areas:

• Literacy
• Numeracy
• Communication skills
• Behaviour

These are nationally agreed criteria for IEPs. However, at St Vincent’s we have also devised specific targets for Visual Impairment. Copies of IEPs will be sent home with pupils, as it is important that we work together on achieving these goals. Targets are assessed at the end of the IEP term.

If you wish to suggest a target for your child, please return the slip enclosed to the form teacher by Monday 6th February 2012.

If you have any queries please contact: Mrs J Armstrong.
