Does Teachers Bother To Look At A Childs Report

Just wondering when a child aged 9 returns to school after the summer holidays and enter a new season and teacher, does the new teacher bother to read the childs report from the previous teacher?

 

Our daughter had a glowing report, they couldn't praise her enough, shes helpful, engaging, etc etc. 

 

But since she's started the new term, we noticed she seems upset when coming out of school, and shes not the happy girl we knew before the holidays, in fact yesterday she said mummy I don't like school, I don't want to go. 

But this not like her at all. 

 

She said my new male teacher is quite strict, and not nice. 

 

Wouldn't teachers benefit from reading a child's previous report to see and gauge how to move forward with each child. 

Or do they start with a clean slate?
