This week I will experience my first parents’ evening as an NQT. I will be meeting with parents of my year 10 students.
They are a lovely group. So far they have worked extremely hard under the pressure of their GCSEs. They have told me that they can sense the change in pace since year 9, but most have gone above and beyond to throw themselves into the GCSE course, and have taken the whole rhetoric of GCSE in their stride.
I am extremely lucky to have such a positive cohort for my first “official” GCSE group, so I am actually looking forward to passing on such praise to their parents. I’m embracing this as much as possible, as I don’t think that other parents’ evenings will always be quite as positive!
