End-of-Year School Reports: What Parents Really Need to Look For (and What to Ignore)
It’s report review season — and for parents of neurodivergent children, this time of year brings stress, confusion, and a LOT of questions.
Does “emerging” mean my child is behind?
Is this report even accurate?
What should I be asking for before the year ends?
In this episode of Navigating Neurodiverse Education, I break down exactly how to interpret end-of-year reports through a neurodiversity-affirming lens. You’ll learn:
- What “emerging,” “developing,” and other vague report words really mean
- How to identify functional progress schools often overlook
- What to request in writing before the school year ends
- How to set clear expectations for your child’s new teacher
If you want to walk into Term 1 feeling prepared, informed, and confident — this episode will empower you with the knowledge and language you need.
