IHETC School
What you see, at any moment
A report card arrives three times a year; a change of pace plays out in three weeks. The parent space shows progress the same day, with the work submitted, the assessments and the tutor's recommendations.
The full list of what is displayed to you
Nothing below requires an option, a special access or a request from you: it is all there from the moment the account opens, updated the same day.
What you see, at any moment
- Progress lesson by lesson, with the date of every stage cleared
- Actual working time, session by session, with no flattering rounding
- Concepts secured, those still fragile, those still to cover
- The work your child submitted, exactly as they submitted it
- Marked assessments, with the detail of what was counted
- The tutor's messages: what was worked on, what it recommends next
- The subjects where your child moves fast, and those where they slow down
- The pace of the last seven days, set against the month
- An alert the day progress stops, without waiting for the report card
- The written assessment from the start, to measure the ground covered since
What belongs to your child
- The word-for-word content of exchanges with the tutor
- Their drafts, crossings-out and abandoned versions
- The questions they ask with no witness, as often as they wish
- The number of attempts it took before they succeeded
- The time of day they choose to work
Why this split is a design decision
It is deliberate, and it is what makes both columns useful. A pupil who knows every question is passed on keeps their questions to themselves, and so stops admitting they have not understood — and that admission is precisely what triggers learning. You therefore receive the result, complete and dated: progress, real time, submitted work, assessments, recommendations. Your child keeps the rough work, that is, the place where they are allowed to be wrong without an audience. You act on facts; they work with confidence. The two halves hold each other up.
What the tutor does with your child
The tutor makes the pupil work and lets them find the answer. It is a written doctrine, held session after session, and it decides what your child will be able to do alone on assessment day.
It asks for a restatement
« Tell me what you understood from the question. » Most blocks come loose right there, with no content given at all.
It offers a neighbouring case
An example with the same structure, on different content. The pupil transposes it themselves, and that transposition is what is learned.
It points back to the lesson
To the exact page rather than the chapter. Finding it yourself is a study skill that serves well beyond the session.
It leaves the answer to the pupil
Including under pressure, and it says so plainly. The pupil keeps the benefit of their own search, which is the whole point.
Your part: two minutes a week
- 01
Open the summary
One page: stages cleared, real time, concepts revisited. It reads in thirty seconds.
- 02
Spot the subject slowing down
It is named, with the exact topic. No knowledge of the syllabus is needed.
- 03
Read the recommendation
The tutor writes what it proposes for the following week, in one sentence.
- 04
Talk about it, or not
An open question in the evening is often enough. The tracking gives you what you need to ask it well.
Parents' questions
Do I need to know the syllabus to follow along?
Your part takes two minutes a week and reads without any academic knowledge: the subject slowing down is named, so is the topic, and the tutor's recommendation fits in one sentence. A system asking a parent to become a teacher again would work in very few families; this one is designed to fit into an ordinary evening.
How do I know my child is really working?
Tracking counts actual working time and stages cleared, never connection time: an app left open stays at zero. Submitted work and marked assessments complete the picture, and those three together give a faithful image of the week.
Can I write to the tutor?
You can flag useful context — a busy period, an exam coming up, a temporary difficulty — and the tutor factors it into the pace of sessions. In return you receive its written recommendations every week. Your child's working thread stays theirs.
