Many thanks for the questions and contributions raised both in person and via email, for the first of our half termly Open Forum’s designed to improve and enhance communication between parents, students and leadership of the Sixth Form.
Actions to be implemented as a result of suggestions include:
- Introducing a ‘Meet the Year 12 tutor’ evening, now calendared for 30th September 2010.
- Using the new improved website as a communication centre, week beginning the 7th June 2010 all Sixth Form materials will be uploaded.
- Weekly events ‘blogged’ – happening already, please see website homepage.
- Text message service to be used to inform parents of events, interim data hand outs, etc – used to inform parents of Open Forum 11th May (first trial)
- On line access to attendance, data, and progress made for parents via a secure network. To be trialed for use in September.
If you would like to be involved in the pilot version of this system please email tduffill@nunthorpe.co.uk
Any further suggestions of how we can improve our communication with parents or other practices are always gratefully received.
The next Open Forum for Sixth Form is on Wednesday 30th June 2010, 15.30-17.00. If you are unable to attend but would like issues or comments raising please email kkell@nunthorpe.co.uk
Many thanks to those who are already aiding in the development of the Sixth Form. Please support and join us, however small you may feel your contribution may be.
