How Parents’ Evening Works

Family tutors will give pupils an ‘Appointment Schedule’ to take home. Parents/Carers please book your time slot between 4.15 pm – 6.15 pm with available subject teachers. 

Parents’ Evening Feedback 

We were delighted that over 70% of our parents came along to discuss their child’s progress and welfare with us in 2021/2022. Education is always more successful when we work together.
