Parents Evenings
Kings’ is a community where parents play a vital role in pupil’s success and happiness at the school. We have achieved our reputation for academic excellence by working together to support and inspire the children at Kings’ to forge their own paths and find and explore their individual passions.
Parents Evenings
We provide a Parent Evenings and Parent Information Evenings. All parents and guardians are encouraged to attend if possible. If it is not possible to attend a set date, you will be able to meet with specific subject leads by arrangement, although exact timing cannot be guaranteed. Parents can arrange to meet with your child’s Tutor at any time by mutual agreement.
These are an essential way for parents to stay in touch with your child’s progress at Kings’ and to work with their subject teachers to support them in reaching their full potential. You will receive your child’s latest report, which together with the Parent Evening discussions, further develop your understanding of areas of strengths and areas for development; both personal and academic.

Important Information regarding parents evenings.
Only book 1 teacher per subject, some classes have 2 teachers available.
Unfortunately there is not the time in the evening or available teaching hours to accommodate a teacher, parent, & pupil session across all subjects. For this reason we initially restrict bookings to 6 sessions per pupil. Your child’s report should help to assist with this prioritisation, this is to give equal opportunity to all parents / carers to book their priority subjects. Appointments are booked on a first come first served basis. Please see your parents evening letter, which will detail the dates and times for booking appointments.
Appointments are 5 minutes long, once you are into the last minute of your appointment, there will be a counter on the screen, these timings are pre-set and will end the appointment at 5 minutes,
In the event that an appointment has to be cancelled due to unforeseen circumstances, the teacher will contact you at a later date. We do endeavour to keep any disruption to a minimum.

Parents Information Evenings
We run regular Parents Information Evenings every term, both pastoral and academic. These sessions provide parents with an outline of the curriculum, key dates and how parents can support their children with the challenges that their studies present; the social and emotional challenges that their child may be facing and useful strategies to help them, along with external signposting.
