CSPWA Resources- Parent Teacher interviews
As we move towards the end of term 2, teachers will start preparing reports, which are usually followed up with an opportunity to meet with the teacher to discuss how your child is progressing. When the interview time comes, there should be no surprises about how your child is progressing academically, as that information will be contained in the school report.
However, we suggest that this time for parents, teachers and sometimes students to meet can provide a great opportunity for teachers to learn a little more about your child as a person and for you as a parent to discover how they are travelling socially and emotionally at school. We know that for children to learn effectively, the conditions need to be right, and this includes having good wellbeing.
To enable these conversations and to provide you with some alternative questions you may like to ask, we have developed some resources which we hope you will find useful. We would love to hear back from you if you do find them useful or alternatively if you feel we have missed including something important.

We would also like to draw your attention to two additional resources that we have recently updated and which you might like to have available for parents at your next P&F event.
The first is a resource that highlights the important role that parents play in the Catholic School community and may be viewed alongside your school's Code of Conduct.
The second is a welcoming resource for parents and gives an overview of school gospel values, feast days and sacraments.
