Year 9 Parents' Evening
Our Year 9 Parents' Evenings will take place on 7th and 15th February, which will provide an opportunity to discuss your child's progress with their current teachers. It will also offer a further opportunity to discuss the suitability of option choices for your child. The evenings will be held from 4pm on the 7th, and 3:30pm on the 15th.

In order to further support students and parents/carers with the options process, we will be holding options conversations from 12th February to 1st March during the school day. The conversations are with senior members of staff and give students the opportunity to discuss their options, ask any questions they may have and receive support in making an informed decision about their final option choices.
