Year 8 Parents Evening Thursday 2nd February 2023, 3.30-6.30pm
January 16, 2023 Belinda Gosling

Dear Parents/Carers,

We would like to invite students and parents of Year 8 to a hybrid Parents Evening on Thursday 2nd February 2023.

In order to accommodate everyone’s preferences, we are offering a hybrid approach for the  evening, whereby you can make face to face appointments if you prefer, or video call appointments.

If you have chosen video appointments this will be an opportunity to meet via video link with subject teachers to discuss the progress of students. There’s nothing to download or install – simply login to the Parents Evening system prior to the start of your first appointment.  Each appointment will last 5 minutes (with an automatic cut off after this time) and will be carried out via video call.

If a face to face appointment is required please book a video call appointment and at the end of each appointment booking ensure you leave a message in the ‘Appointment Message’ box to say you will be attending school in person.

Appointments will be available between 3.30pm and 6.30pm and can be booked using the Parents Evening System online, via the School website at (HDHS website), from Monday 23rd January at 9.00am. The deadline for booking appointments is Thursday 2nd February 2023 at 9.00am.

As well as appointments with subject teachers there will be a presentation regarding the Transition Year Choices process, the Curriculum in Years 9-11 and the Key Stage Four Options process in B1, next to the main reception at 3.45, repeated at 4.45 and 5.45. If you would like to attend one of these presentations please book your subject teacher appointments accordingly. Presentations should not be any longer than 30 minutes.

Please use this link to access more information re attending your video appointments (Parent guide)

If you are unable to access the HDHS website to make your appointments please telephone the school reception and someone will be able to help you.

Kind regards,

Mrs C Simpson
