Academic and Pastoral Review Meetings
Academic and Pastoral Review Meetings
At Woolwich Polytechnic School we value our home-school partnership. We welcome you, as parents/carers, into school to meet with tutors and subject teachers at several points throughout the year.
We commence each academic year with a target setting meeting, where targets for the academic and personal progress are set for the forthcoming year, based on prior attainment and pastoral records. Our subject review meetings are designed to have time to discuss your child’s academic progress with the subject teachers. Our pastoral review meeting is a time to discuss attendance, punctuality, behaviours for learning and successes throughout the year.
Our timetable for the meetings can be found below.
Bookings for meetings with your child’s tutor should be made using MCAS- Bromcom. Please take some time to view the link below to give you some pointers on how to book and attend parents’ meetings :

Making the most of the review meetings.
During the Subject Review you will meet with your child’s different subject teachers. This will be an opportunity to discuss your child’s progress in their subjects. Questions you may want to ask:
- Is my child making the expected progress towards his End of Year/GCSE target grade?
- What can I expect my child to be doing at home to support his learning in this subject?
- What should I be seeing in my child’s book?
- What revision activities should my child be doing?
- Does my child complete all homework? How can I support my child with this?
- How does my child engage in class?
- Does my child ask questions, contribute to class discussion?
- What does my child need to do to make further progress?
- How much work should my child being doing over and above his homework activities?
- Where can I find resources for my child to extend their learning?
