Interesting site, locked down so that private school teachers, curious tertiary educators and budding student teachers can examine the epotential menu.  Clicking on the "tour as a guest" button will gently escort them back to the home page. I contemplate quietly logging in and leaving some of you guessing and gasping about the wonders certainly contained within. After briefly reflecting on the error message, "INSERT INTO entityuser (entityid,userid) VALUES ('66713',null)" Keith's warning rings in my ears that its clearly time to dig out the shoeboxes and sleeping bags stuffed full of receipts.. O' joy!

</a>&gt;<br>Content-Type: text/plain;charset=iso-8859-1<br><br>Hi<br>Where is your comment Bank?<br><br><br>&gt; This is more of a general comment on comments (as I sit here<br>&gt; procrastinating writing my own report comments :) Obviously each
<br>&gt; school&#39;s system will be different, but our comments&nbsp;&nbsp;(for the core<br>&gt; subjects) have three sections: what the student has achieved, how they<br>&gt; can improve or go further, and what the school will do to help them
<br>&gt; get there. I use this general format for IT as well (it fits nicely<br>&gt; with the idea of framing the bad news between two pieces of good<br>&gt; news). The first section is simply a description of the things that
<br>&gt; student has done or can do (and how they&#39;ve shown it). This will<br>&gt; depend on what they have actually done - you&#39;ll have to work with the<br>&gt; teacher in question. The second bit can cover behaviour and motivation
<br>&gt; issues, as well as going into what things that student will get into<br>&gt; next semester. Once the comment banks are done, writing a report<br>&gt; formost students becomes quite easy and formulaic.<br>&gt;<br>
