Parents' evenings
The Clarendon College has seven Parents’ Evening a year and students make appointments for their parents or carers by seeing individual subject teachers and recording their appointment details in their planners ahead of each Parents’ Evening. In addition to this, Clarendon conducts six Interim Assessments of student progress during Years 12 and 13. These assessments are posted home to parents or carers in advance of a Parents’ Evening in order that they can be used as a sensible starting point for discussions about academic progress. See dates in newsletter.
At The John of Gaunt School we have a mixture of tutor and subject teacher evenings throughout the year. We hold two Interim Assessments of student progress during Years 12 and 13. Like The Clarendon College, should a student begin to experience difficulties in meeting the requirements of Sixth Form study, tutors will make early home contact and invite parents or carers to John of Gaunt or Clarendon for a discussion with the student. Our intention at these meetings is to negotiate a sensible way forward from the difficulties so that study suffers as few interruptions as possible. In addition to this, we also produce a formal report every year.
