Don't be daunted by Parents evening! This is the opportunity for parents and teachers to discuss students' progress and how you can all work together to achieve the student's best possible attainments. By communicating with the school staff you can have a better picture of where your child is now and where they could be in the future.
Take this chance to ask the questions you thought of and, before you go, ask your child if there is anything they would like answers to or if they have any worries about that they feel unconfident asking in the classroom.
Use this opportunity because usually there are only a maximum of 2 parents evenings each academic year for each year group!
