Tutor Virtual Parents Evening – September 2021

We are pleased to inform you that we will be holding a Tutor Virtual Parents’ Evening on Thursday 23rd  September 2021, 3.30pm – 6.30pm. Due to the success of last year’s parents evening and over whelming positive feedback from parents and staff we have decided to continue this online using software called Schools Cloud. The instructions to support with this are below.

This evening is an opportunity for you to talk with your child’s tutor about their start to the year. You will be able to make one appointment during the time. If you are unable to make this evening, then please contact your child’s tutor to organise a time for them to give you a call. You are, of course, always welcome to contact tutors at any time if you are concerned about your child by ringing the school or email the teacher directly. Teacher’ emails are all their first initial, followed by their surname and then @coombedean.co.uk. So for example L Sutherland would be lsutherland@coombedean.co.uk

Appointments will be made on a first come first served basis. Only parents and carers that we have recorded as having parental responsibility can gain access to the booking website.  It is essential that your details are as we have recorded in the school database. I would recommend trying to log in as soon as you can.  If the system says it does not recognise you, it will not be the email address that is the problem. If you encounter any problems or need us to make appointments for you because you do not have internet access, please contact Mr Georgiev or Miss Gardner by email at parentsevening@coombedean.co.uk 

Booking will open on Monday 13th September at 6pm and will close just before midday on Wednesday 22nd September.  After this time, you will not be able to make any further appointments and will need to contact the school. Please read the information below carefully before booking:
•    Only parents and carers that we have recorded as having parental responsibility can gain access to the booking website.  It is essential that you enter your name in exactly the same way as we have it recorded in the school database.
•    The email address you enter is only to get a confirmation of your appointments. If the system says that it does not recognise you, it will not be the email address that is the problem.
•    Please make sure you watch the troubleshooting video by following the link below. This explains how to make the appointments as well as how to access the appointments.

On the evening:
