Tutor Review Day – Tuesday 19th November 2019

Dear Parent/Carer

 Tutor Review Day TUESDAY 19 NOVEMBER 2019, ONLINE APPOINTMENT BOOKING

We are holding our first Tutor Review Day on Tuesday 19 November 2019. Appointments are available between 12 noon and 6.45pm.

We operate the online Parents Evening Booking system and this allows parents and carers to choose or alter a pre-booked appointment with staff.

Year 11 Pupils

If you have a child in Year 11, they will have an appointment with a designated Head of Learning Zone/Leader of Learning rather than their Personal Learning Tutor. This enables you to discuss your child’s progress with an experienced leader who can offer a bespoke package of support. You should have either booked your appointment at the Y11 Parents Evening on the 9^th October or we will have made an appointment for you.

If you would like to change your appointment time please contact school or alternatively your child can call into the general office to change

Year’s 7 to 10 Pupils

The booking system will be available from 9.00am on Friday 18th October 2019.  The system will temporarily close on Tuesday 12 November 2019 at 8.30am and pupils without an appointment will have one assigned.  The system will reopen later the same day and you will be able to change appointments if required. The system will finally close on Friday 15 November 2019 at 12.00pm.

Please visit https://oakwoodhighschool.parentseveningsystem.co.uk/ to book your appointments.

If you do not have access to the internet, please contact us and we will be happy to add appointments on your behalf (01709 512222).

Your child must bring their iPad/Chromebook for the meeting.  The meeting is expected to last 15 minutes, with a short presentation by your child, and the discussion will focus on your child’s progress.  As you will appreciate these meetings are important, therefore, we expect that every pupil attends with a parent/carer or family member.  There will be no lessons on Review Day as school will be open for individual review meetings only.  Attendance will be recorded and will contribute to your child’s pastoral data.  On this day we expect pupils to work at home on homework, revision or coursework.  Please be aware parking will be limited on the day.

Tutor Review Day will then be followed by Parents Evening for Year 7- Year 10 on: –

• Wednesday 27^th November 2019

Any requests by teachers to see your child will be recorded on Go4Schools in the Pupil Progress section.  You can view this at any time.  You can make Parents Evening bookings at Tutor Review Day with staff in the dining hall from 12 noon or you can book via the Parents Evening Booking system from Wednesday 20^th November 2019.

Yours faithfully

Simon Willey

Assistant Headteacher
