The first of two Year 11 Parent/Carer Consultation evenings is scheduled for Tuesday, 15^th December 2015. This first evening will provide you with an opportunity to discuss your child’s progress and the outcomes of their recent pre-public exams with subject teachers and to consolidate or add to targets set on Student Review Day.

The evening will begin at 4.30pm and finish at 7.30pm. Our aim is to enable you to meet subject teachers at a time most convenient to yourselves. Each appointment will last 5 minutes and I ask that you keep to schedule so that the evening can run with minimum delays. Should there be issues that require longer discussion a further appointment to meet with the teacher concerned can of course be requested.

Unlike Student Review Day, appointments are made by the student themselves. Please note that appointments are on a first come first served basis and some teachers teach several Year 11 classes. Appointment slips are to be found in your child’s Student Planner. Teachers will be encouraging students to make appointments in their lessons; it will help this process if students have an idea of the time you are able to attend and which teachers you would like to see.

Please remember to either bring the planner or the page from the planner to the Parent/Carer Consultation evening as we do not keep a central record of appointments.

As there are no car parking facilities on the school site and roads around the area are extremely busy at times, please give consideration to our neighbours should you need to park within the surrounding area.  Dorothy Stringer school allow use of their car park on these evenings should you require it.

If you have any additional requirements e.g. wheelchair access, please contact Pamela Fulton on 01273 545277 or email pamelafulton@varndean.co.uk who will advise accordingly.
