learning needs and
how the parents can support their children. |

March conferences. |

year. |

As well as the above each syndicate will issue a newsletter at the
beginning of each
Term to inform parents of key aspects of programmes to be covered during
the Term.
An annual Expo of some aspect of work across the school will be held
towards the end
of Term 2.
Should parents or teachers have particular concerns about the progress
of individuals throughout the year then consultation by either party is
