Parents’ Evenings
Each academic year, a Parents’ Evening is held for each year group, providing an opportunity for subject staff to discuss students’ progress and attainment with parents and carers.
Details of Parents’ Evenings will be published on Bromcom. Parents and carers will also receive an email notification in advance, and appointments can be booked via the MyChildAtSchool (MCAS) app. Where students have more than one home, parents and carers are asked to liaise with one another to coordinate appointments and attend meetings together wherever possible.
In addition to scheduled Parents’ Evenings, appointments can be arranged at other times to meet with Tutors, Heads of House, or subject teachers if concerns arise. Parents and carers are encouraged to contact the Academy at any time if they have concerns about their child’s education or wellbeing, and likewise to inform us promptly of any relevant issues arising at home.
Staff are always pleased to meet with parents and carers by appointment to discuss any aspect of a student’s progress or welfare.
Parents’ Evening Booking System
The Parents’ Evening system enables you to book your appointments online. Appointments will be between 4pm and 7pm.
You will login to the Parents’ Evening system using your My Child in School App.
Booking for appointments normally opens at 8.00am on the Saturday two weeks and four days before a Parents’ Evening. There are only a maximum of 33 appointments for any teacher, and potentially many more parents who would like an appointment, so it is advisable to book early.
Occasionally appointments you may have booked in for the Parents’ Evening will have to be changed in order to assign a correct teacher for the class. When this happens we will always try to keep to the same time as closely as possible, and you will be notified of any change by automatic email from the system.
