Year 13 Parent-Teacher Virtual Appointments – 8th October 2021

Dear Parents/Carers

On Wednesday 20th October you will have the opportunity to discuss your child’s progress with their subject teachers, during the Year 13 parents/teacher day.  The virtual parent/teacher meetings are an important part of your child’s education and you will be able to discuss how your child is performing in each of their subjects, with their subject teacher.  Your child is expected to attend the meetings with you.

I am pleased to inform you that due to the success of last year’s video appointments, we are again able to offer this opportunity via School Cloud, an online platform specialising in communication between parents/carers and school teachers.

The appointments will take place between 8:00am and 7:00pm and are five minutes long.  Time slots are self booked and are on a first come first served basis.  Bookings will open on Wednesday 13th October at 12:00pm and will close on Tuesday 19th October at 12:00pm.  If you are unable to operate video meetings, please contact your child’s subject teachers so that other arrangements can be made.

Details of how to access School Cloud and book your appointments can be found here.  On the afternoon of the appointment, simply attend by following the guide here.  If after following the instructions, you experience technical difficulties with setting up your appointment, please do not hesitate to contact lisa.bodle@leighacademy.org.uk and we will be of assistance.

I hope that you find the opportunity to meet with your child’s teachers useful. I know that staff are looking forward to meeting virtually with you.

Yours faithfully

Julia Collins
Principal
