Year 9 Parents' Evening

Our Year 9 Parents' Evenings will take place from 4pm on the 5th and 13th of 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. Appointments will be made online using Edulink.

Options Conversations

In order to further support students with the options process, students will be asked to complete a questionnaire to see if they are happy with their choices, or would prefer to have a conversation with a senior member of staff. This will ensure they can ask any questions they may have and receive support in making an informed decision about their final option choices. If students would like a discussion then these will take place during February.
