Parents' Evening

Parent’s evening is one of the best opportunities for you to meet teachers to discuss how your child is doing and it is important that you attend these occasions. These events are a two way process - while parents want and need to know how their child is doing, this is also an opportunity for teachers to learn about your child's home-behaviour, for example their approach to homework, and to make suggestions to parents on how they can help with their child's learning. We therefore request you attend these meetings without your child, so that you can confidently talk to the teacher in private. It will also give you the opportunity to see their books and exactly what they have been learning.

Children will not be permitted into the school during parents’ evenings and unfortunately you will not be able to attend your meeting should you bring your child with you. This will ensure all parents have the opportunity to hold a private visit with the class teacher. If you have an early appointment, then please arrange for someone else to collect your child in this instance.  If you are bringing an infant in a buggy, please ensure that you leave the buggy in the hall and take your infant with you for the appointment.  

Appointments are for 10 minutes per child. Once again, we are using Gateway’s online booking system (https://graysfarm.schoolcloud.co.uk) for appointments. Bookings will open at 8am on Tuesday 4th October and will close on Monday 10th October at 4pm; please ensure that appointments are booked before this time. If you experience any difficulty in securing your appointment online, please contact one of the office staff who will be happy to help you.
