Family Involvement
At Wigmore School, we like to have as many opportunities for parents to visit the school to find out how we teach different subjects. It is very beneficial if you are able to attend these meetings as it does allow us to explain the methods that we are currently using. We truly appreciate your support with these evenings.
Parents’ Evenings are held twice a year to discuss pupils’ progress and to inform parents of targets set. In the Spring Term, a comprehensive report is written which may be discussed with the class teacher on request. Teachers are normally available for quick consultations with families at the beginning and at the end of the school day. However, families who are worried about their child’s progress should contact the school and make an appointment to meet teaching staff at any time during the term.
The Parent Teacher Association is actively involved with the school and arranges social and fund-raising events. All parents are regarded as members of the PTA and a committee is appointed each year to organise PTA activities. The team have helped to fundraise for new playground equipment, school trips, class iPads and much, much more. If you would like to join the PTA or hear more about it please email: [email protected]
The school encourages and welcomes families to come into school and help with various activities throughout the week. We are eager to use any skills or knowledge that the families of children may have. Please contact the class teacher if you would like to help in this way. Help can be in any form: helping with listening to readers, organising the school library or talking about your profession if linked with the class learning.
