Year 9 Parents’ Evening and Options Information

On Tuesday 13th January 2026 we held an on-site Parentsโ€™ Evening for English, Maths and Science teachers. There was also the facility to book an appointment with the SEND team if your child was on the SEND register. Parents were required to book appointments for Maths, English, Science and SEND (if applicable) using our Parents Evening System. At the same time as the Parentsโ€™ Evening, we hosted an Options Event where students and parents/carers were able to discuss the courses with Teachers โ€“ there was also a talk from Mr Hagen on the Options Process and the opportunity to ask any questions.
