Dear Parent/Carer,

We are working to try and ensure that we have had the opportunity for some face to face time with all students before the Summer. At the moment we are trialing some virtual tutor group sessions for all students to take part in (invite via the students’ email account) and have had fantastic attendance at these sessions. Also, we have organised IAG (information, Advice and Guidance) sessions with form tutors to take place in school (socially distanced) to answer any questions you may have and check in with families. If you would like to attend please sign up to a meeting with your child’s form tutor from 1-5pm on the 1st or 2nd July. This will help us plan with students’ needs in mind and prioritise support where needed when school reopens.

We have completed a complex risk assessment and safety is central to decision making around the organisation and we will ensure appropriate social distancing. If you have any concerns or queries please do not hesitate to get in touch with Miss Gray (h.gray@burnsidecollege.org.uk). We are hopeful that we see you soon but fully understand if you do not think that this is the right decision for your child and family. At this time you must do what feels right for you and we will continue to offer support through online/delivered learning materials- including virtual sessions.

A guide is available to help you to make bookings here or at the bottom of this page, and a direct link to the Parents’ Evening System is here.

If you are unable to log in, please ensure that you are using the email address that we have on record for you. If you have any questions or difficulty making a booking please contact ict-support@burnsidecollege.org.uk for assistance.

Kind Regards

Charlotte Jenkins
