They should only get their grades and message when the teacher moves the marking workflow on to Released; they shouldn't get ity before then. Could you provide the exact steps teachers are taking from setting up the assignment with marking workflow to students getting their grades and I will take a look?

She possibly used the group assignment option by error. See 2.10 in Using Assignment I think she could go back to each student and grade them individually.

It depends on the age really. With reception classes, it is basically the teacher who puts on stuff for the pupils to look at or play to practise their  mouse co-ordination. I've known a teacher who uses it for written homework in Year 2 - they type a little bit of text online with images for example. Forums are great too because they encourage their communication skills (and you don't have to grade them on literacy) I have mainly used it as transition in Y5 and Y6 as they get used to going to high school (where I used to work) Here is a blog post from Australia on Moodle in primaries: http://www.markdrechsler.com/?p=431 and here is a link to a blog post of mine with one example of a Year 5 Moodle course I made (for languages) http://www.moodleblog.net/2013/11/09/mystery-moodle-mfl-fun/ If you want to see other examples of primary Moodle courses, you can see one on geography (for Year 5) here http://school.demo.moodle.net/course/view.php?id=129 but you need to log in with username "student" and password "moodle" and then each activity is revealed only when you have done (or clicked on) the previous one. Here is a Year 5 Maths Moodle course here, designed to teach the Fibonacci sequence http://school.demo.moodle.net/course/view.php?id=136 - again, if you want to see it in action, use the same username and password as before.

If you google "Moodle and primary schools" or something similar - you will get a lot of examples of Moodle use in primary schools. Here indeed is a blog post from today from a Moodle Partner (a company who hosts Moodle) http://www.schoolanywhere.co.uk/blog/using-moodle-with-young-pupils-and-pupils-with-poor-literacy-skills/
