Parents' Evenings 2020-2021

As ever, all staff are eager to meet with you to discuss your child’s progress thus far and identify anything that can be done to further improve.  As part of our ongoing efforts to keep students, parents/carers and staff safe during the COVID-19 pandemic, we have decided that these meetings will be booked online and held by video meeting rather than in-person in school.

We expect many parents/carers will welcome this decision given the current Government guidance on minimising social contact and mass gatherings.  Furthermore, know that it will also support some parents/carers by attending these events remotely, where it may have been difficult to attend in person before.  We are confident that, as a result of this change, we will see the strongest attendance at our Parents’ Evenings to date.  Please help us to achieve this ambition!

Dates and times for 2020-2021

You will receive specific communication shortly before each Parents’ Evening.  The schedule of Parents' Evenings this year is as follows (with links to the letters about each event):

The system we are using for our online Parents' Evenings is SchoolCloud. 

To make your appointments, please log in to the Regent High School page.

You will need to use:

• Your first name and surname
• Your child’s first name, surname and date of birth

The login details you enter must match those we have on record for you.

When it is time to meet

On the day of your appointments, you need to log in through the SchoolCloud website.

Please ensure you log in 5 minutes before your first appointment is due to begin so you can check your camera and microphone are working.

Where we have two people with parental responsibility recorded on our system, both will have received an invitation to book appointments. You can invite an additional parent/carer to join the appointments you book as explained in the guidance below.

Interpretation

In the first instance, please invite a trusted family member/friend to do this for you by asking them to join your meetings, as described above. The school has limited capacity to provide Bengali and Somali interpreters; should you require support, please send your invitation to our Bengali interpreter or Somali interpreter email addresses, respectively. Interpreters will be allocated on a first-come, first-served basis.

Troubleshooting support

If you are unable to book or are having any issues with the system, please contact the Reception for help at enquiries@regenthighschool.org.uk or by phone on 020 7387 0126. Heads of Year will also be able to support as appropriate. 

Further guidance is available in our help guide, and in the video below:
