The Guardian Summaries are a really popular feature of Google Classroom with our parents. They help them to stay in touch with their children's progress and they give a clear sense of how busy life at Clayesmore is.
It's helpful to have a good idea of how they look. While Classroom is primarily a way of communicating with the students, it's worth being aware that our announcements do have a second audience in the parents.
We should always write for the students - and that student/teacher communication is an impressive part of the way we work at Clayesmore - but don't think of it as an entirely private conversation.
Here is a slightly shortened example of a Guardian Summary
