How to Write Comments on Student Report Cards

Writing report card comments doesn’t have to be difficult. The key is to keep it simple and clear.

What Your Comment Should Cover

  • Academic performance
  • Effort
  • Behavior

Simple Examples

  • Shows good understanding of subjects
  • Needs to improve in some areas
  • Very hardworking and respectful

Use the Right Tone

  • Be honest
  • Be encouraging
  • Avoid harsh words

Combine with Grades and Competence

For example:

  • Grade: Very Good
  • Competence: Proficient
  • Comment: “Shows good understanding and participates well in class”

Save Time

Instead of thinking of comments for every student, Sirbus can suggest comments based on performance, which you can edit if needed.

Final Thoughts

Good comments guide students and help parents understand their child better.
