The relationship between teacher, parent and child is very important and PPDs (Parent Pupil Discussions) act as a great way to link between home and school. The format of how I ran the 15 minute discussion was we would talk about the five key competencies so I could give the parent an overview of the child. I then discussed the core subjects of reading, writing and maths and shared some testing results. This was followed by an outline of their work in the area of afternoon topic and then any questions they might have.
For me it is very important to keep the conversation positive I want to focus on what the child can achieve and give some guidance as to what they need to do achieve to the best of their ability. The conversations that I had with the parents was overwhelmingly positive and that myself and the parents were on the same page with regard the child.
