Having parents and carers fully involved in the life of the school and in the progress of every child is vital.
Whether it is regular reporting on academic progress, sharing achievements or giving parents and carers the opportunity to celebrate as a community – this involvement is at the heart of the Junior School experience.
Reporting
From Nursery through to Lower III (Year 6), the reporting system keeps all parents and carers informed of progress. This might be a written report, a grade card, a parents evening to discuss progress or a workshop to see what learning looks like at The Abbey. A regular insight into school life is offered through Tapestry (Nursery and Reception) and Seesaw (Lower Prep to Lower III).
TAPS
The Abbey Parents Society (TAPS) plays a vital role in supporting the school and offering opportunities to connect and celebrate. There are events every term. The annual Candle-Lit Procession is a highlight and there have been movie screenings, quiz nights, BBQs and more. Year group parents also meet via TAPS for evenings out.
Sharing and celebrating
Parents and carers are always welcome. Opportunities include, an open coffee morning on Fridays, year group assemblies, services and drama productions. Celebration events throughout the year culminate in our summer Celebration Afternoon which is a huge garden party showcasing and celebrating our whole community and all that our girls have achieved throughout the year.
