Goal-setting Conferences

Dear Parents,
​On Friday 24th September, JVLR Primary school will have virtual goal-setting conferences. These conferences will involve parents and homeroom teachers in Nursery and JKG. In SKG-Grade 5, the conferences will involve students, parents and teachers. During these meetings, you will have the opportunity to understand student strengths and learning goals connected to the learner profile and approaches to learning.

Please note that there will be no classes on the 24th of September. There are some additional sign up slots on the 23rd of September from 2-4 pm to ensure all parents can attend a conference. 

Meeting sign up will be on a first-come, first-served basis. The signup sheet will open on September 13th at 8 am and close on September 20th at 4 pm. During this time, you can sign-up to meet your child’s homeroom teachers. Please note that in SKG-Grade 5, students will also need to attend the conference.

SchoolCloud - Parentseveningsystems.co.uk 
We are using School Cloud to sign up for the meetings and to host the video calls with teachers. School Cloud runs through your internet browser. On School Cloud, you will only be able to use one device,  if you need to add another person to the call, you will need to do this in advance with the homeroom teacher. 

On conference day, please log into your account with the same details that you use to book the meeting. You will need to allow SchoolCloud access to your video and microphone for the video call. Please attend your scheduled meetings promptly, as meetings will automatically be disconnected after the allotted time.
