Guest Posted March 21, 2006 Share Posted March 21, 2006 Need clarification as not getting it from my borough (v helpful indeed!!!!). We used to do the pink FSP booklet but our borough came out with own version which included the 9 points for each area plus some extras so they are more broken down. Had a visitor recently who said this was not acceptable and we should be doing pink book as it is statutory. Recently a head teacher friend told me its only the score that is statutory and we can use our own booklet as originally advised. Help!!!!!! No one from borough is replying to messages/emails and am quietly going bonkers at prospect at doing 30 FSP bklets on top of what we have already started. Can anyone refer me to where it says in black and white if is statutory or not so I can prove this to any other visitors we may have!!!!(and also staff at school who aren't sure. Thanks in anticipation jacqui Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnonyMouse_73 Posted March 21, 2006 Share Posted March 21, 2006 Your Headteacher freind is quite correct, the scores aare statutory but the booklets are not. You can find it in balck and white from teh QCA, where it says what do practitioners have to do! here Hope that helps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted March 21, 2006 Share Posted March 21, 2006 As I understand it the booklet is optional but reporting the FSP results is mandatory - I don't use the pink booklets! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnonyMouse_79 Posted March 21, 2006 Share Posted March 21, 2006 Jackie, the booklet is optional. The scale scores have to be reported and that is statutory. You can keep your records, and new booklet, however you wish as long as you report scale scores to LEA and should also be reported to parents.

AnonyMouse_3307 Posted March 22, 2006 Share Posted March 22, 2006 It's all in the assessment and reportng arrangements booklet 2006 (the annual one) which as I am rapidly finding out has gone to Yr 2s in most cases (due to the large 1 on the cover) despite the fact it also says Foundation stage on the list of assessments too.

Guest Posted April 2, 2006 Share Posted April 2, 2006 Hi, I also find the e-profile very useful. You don't have paper flying about and you can also keep an eye on where all your children are at through graphs. If it were statutory or not, I would definelty still be using it. I don't think I would find the booklets as useful however. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
