 A
number of consultation evenings are arranged each year to enable
discussions to take place with teachers; the dates of these sessions are
made available to parents early in the Autumn term. They are arranged so
as to complement the issuing of Pupil Profiles. Each year group has one
session during the year. An appointment system operates between 5.00 pm
and 8.00 pm. |

In
addition to these, there are two evenings for parents of Year 6 pupils
in the year before their children join the school, one in November, and
one in July. There is also an evening for pupils in Year 7 who have just
arrived at the school. We hope that this will ease the process of
transferring to a new school. Year 9 have an extra evening to discuss
option choices. We have an Information Evening for Year 10 parents in
the Autumn term to discuss such issues as Work Experience and the
demands of GCSE. Year 11 have a ‘Pathways’ evening in the Autumn term
where they can see the options open to them post 16, and an invitation
evening when staff ask to see certain parents. |

These dates appear in the calendar
planner issued to pupils and parents at the beginning of each academic
year. |

A Certificate Presentation Evening is held annually. Additionally,
occasional meetings are arranged in response to particular needs, e.g.
developments in the National Curriculum which might affect the
syllabuses currently in use. |
