We are ambitious for our students and we are sure you are the same in a caring and supportive way. Together in partnership, we can ensure that we get the very best for them!
We are looking forward to meeting you all on Tuesday October 16th at The Three Way conferences where important conversations can be had between student, parent and teacher.
The conferences will be 15 minutes slots in the Primary Cafeteria starting at 7.30 am and finishing at 3.30pm.
This is an important chance to speak with your child's advisor and recognise any patterns of ATL's across different subjects or interdisciplinarily in IB language.
If there are any issues with certain subjects then there will be time to speak with the relevant teacher as well.
Please make sure that you sign and send the letter back by Friday 5th October.
