Parent Consultations April 2021

Dear Parents/Carers,

I am writing to let you know how we will be organising parent consultation meetings next term. These are scheduled for the second week following the Easter break (26^th – 29^th April).

 

This meeting is a chance for us to discuss how your child has settled back into school, how much they have achieved and the next steps forward. Due to current restrictions in relation to health and safety concerns, connected to the on-going coronavirus pandemic, these meetings will take the form of telephone conversations and the class teacher will call you. 

 

In order to make the booking of appointments easy and efficient for parents/ carers, we will be using the “Teachers 2 Parents” text service. Time slots will be allocated on a first-come-first-served basis. Each appointment will last approximately 10 minutes. 

 

The booking system will go live on Monday 29^th March and close on Friday 2^nd April. A text will be sent to you and you will need to book an appointment for each of your children with their class teacher.  If you have any problems, please make the class teacher aware of this when you collect your child at the end of the day.

 

Most importantly, please ensure the school office has your up-to-date mobile number so that the text service can contact you.

 

Appointment booking schedule:

 

Monday 26^th April – Years 3, 4, 5 and 6

Tuesday 27^th April - Years 3, 4, 5 and 6

Wednesday 28^th April – Nursery, Reception, Year 1 and Year 2

Thursday 29^th April - Nursery, Reception, Year 1 and Year 2

 

Yours sincerely,

Mrs S Jack

Headteacher

It is vital that we all play our part in keeping everyone safe, to ensure we remain COVID free here at Wrotham Road Primary School.     

                         

Please remember to maintain social distancing at all times while queuing or waiting on the school site. Please do not congregate on the school site, once you have collected all of your children, please exit the school site via the one way system. This also refers to congregating around the school gates, this must not happen as it impedes others safely accessing the school.
