Year 10 Parents' Evening - Reminder

Thursday 13 June 2019

The Year 10 Parents’ Evening takes place on Thursday 13 June from 6.00pm to 8.30pm in the Sixth Form Centre.

We will provide two supervised areas where siblings can wait whilst you and your son or daughter meet with the teaching staff. There will be a film screening in one room and for those looking for a quieter environment a second area will be provided where they can relax or study.

Please make sure to arrive by 7.30pm at the latest. Parents arriving later than that may not be able to see all the relevant teachers before the event closes at 8.30pm.

Here is some additional information that you may find helpful:

• Parking will be available on the school playground.
• Please enter the Sixth Form Centre building through the Sixth Form entrance only.
• Please ensure you sign in and collect your name badge from the reception desk before entering the Sixth Form Centre.
• There is no appointment system. You should allow approximately five minutes per teacher – a timer will sound every five minutes to assist with keeping discussions within this timeframe – please do organise a further meeting if you feel you need a longer discussion.
• Plan strategically – decide which teachers you really need or want to see and target them first. We suggest you have a list of your child’s teachers and subjects - can be found on the Parent Portal.
• On leaving the building please sign out at the reception desk.

We look forward to seeing you.
