We value parents/ guardians support and want to work in partnership with you to maximise your son/daughter’s success on their course.
At Pendleton Sixth Form College we believe that parents and guardians play a vital role in ensuring student success. We are committed to developing partnerships with parents to make sure that every student is supported to reach their full potential. We communicate with parents on a regular basis and always welcome enquiries about student progress. Parents will receive an invitation to a welcome evening in the first half-term, plus additional invitations throughout the year to attend parents’ evenings.
We believe that working together with parents/ guardians is key to our students success and you can help by…
Encouraging your son/daughter to be on time for class.
Ensuring that we have your correct contact details.
Attend parents evenings during the year – these give you the opportunity to meet staff and check on your son/daughter’s progress.
Encouraging your son/daughter to tell us about any concerns they have regarding their studies and life at college.
Not taking your son/daughter out of college for family holidays during term time.
Ensuring your son/daughter wears their ID card to college each day. This is so that we can identify students at all times.
