Parent-Student-Teacher Meetings
PARENT-STUDENT-TEACHER MEETINGS
Your child’s teachers are gaining an insight into your child’s strengths and challenges, and it is early enough in the year to now sit down and discuss some strategies to ensure 2022 is a year of academic and social growth for your child or children.
- As part of our reporting schedule, teachers will be making themselves available for parent-student-teacher discussions via Zoom between 8.30am and 6:00pm on Tuesday 12th April and Wednesday 13th
- Face-to-face meetings are the preferred means of communication, however, schools are still classified as high risk and vulnerable settings, hence our decision for Zoom meetings, which allow a degree of interaction that is slightly more enhanced than the telephone.
- Students are strongly encouraged to attend these discussions (although there may be a decision made by you and your child’s teacher that determines your child’s attendance at this meeting may not be appropriate).
- The intent of these 15-minute meetings is to have the opportunity to talk openly and honestly regarding your child’s progress this year, whilst also discussing some areas that might or will require some work.
- Whilst Zoom is our preferred option on this occasion if you are unable to access Zoom, please let your child's teacher know and a phone conversation can be arranged.
Year 2, Year 4, Year 5 and Year 6 all have class teachers who share the teaching responsibility. Teachers discuss their planning and individual student strengths and challenges regularly and the level of collaborative professional conversation is impressive. Where possible, both teachers will attend parent-teacher-student meetings.
