Sir Geoffrey Leigh Academy Letter image

Dear Parent/ Carer

Re: Year 8 Parent-Teacher Meeting.

On Wednesday 2nd April 2025 you will receive your child’s mid-year report which shows their mid-year MYP interim grades and attitude and engagement scores, please do discuss with your child.

On Wednesday 23 rd April, you will have the opportunity to discuss your child’s progress with his/her subject teachers, during the Year 8 parent/teacher afternoon/evening. The in-person parent/teacher meetings are an important part of your child’s education, you will be able to discuss how your child is performing in each of their subjects. Your child is expected to attend the appointments with you at the academy, in full uniform.

I am pleased to inform you that making appointments should be simple and efficient via the My Child at School system, for which you already have a login that enables you to view your child’s report. Parents will book appointments through the online platform, but appointments are in person on-site, at Sir Geoffrey Leigh Academy.

The appointments take place between 2:30pm 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 27 th March at 12:00pm and will close on Wednesday 23rd April at 12:00pm.

In the week beginning 5th May, Year 8 will have their next round of IBMYP subject assessments in their lesson. You will also be able to speak to subject teachers about these assessments and how best to support your son/daughter to prepare for success.

When booking appointments if you experience any problems please email: gemma.sharp@sgla.latrust.org.uk.

We are looking forward to welcoming you and we hope that you find the meetings informative.

Yours sincerely

Julia Collins | Principal
