Every learner at OrmPS has a Learning Pathway (all our staff too!).  You may know these better as ‘ePortfolios’ but to us they are much more than that.  The Learning Pathways are a place to put artefacts of learning, but they are also a place for learners to reflect, assessments to be held, learning coaches to communicate/coach learners and essentially become a living online scrapbook.  We also envisage the learning pathways to ‘go’ with the learner to their next school- they own them.  As the learners grow their capabilities they take more and more ownership of them.  An important note for families is that the narrative assessments, or learning stories, can be found in the child’s blog which is linked from the ‘My Progress’ page.  Please ask your LH1 child to show you theirs.  When we have our learner led conferences at the end of the term, you will have an opportunity to see your child use this to show you their learning and ask our learning coaches any questions.  Please feel free to contact Mr McNeil, Mrs Bush or Ms Wilkes if you have any questions in the interim or your child’s Hapu or Shape learning coach.
