Parent Access Module (PAM)

Did you know that you can find teacher feedback written to your child on SIMON and PAM? Did you know that PAM enables you to not only see the grade that your child receives for a task? It also allows you read a comment that the teacher has provided for your child. At Tenison Woods College our teachers provide feedback to students on their progress in a variety of forms, this could verbally in class, written on a task, indicated on an attached rubric, a new feature, or provided to students and parents as evidence via PAM.
