Dear Parents,
I am sure you are finding it hard to believe that the current academic year has drawn to a close and your child will soon be embarking on a new academic year in August.
As you are no doubt aware, at DBIS we place great importance on the partnership between home and school in order to ensure optimal progress and development for your child. Establishing positive relationships with our families is an important initial part of this process. With that in mind, I would like to give you advance warning of the Parent–Teacher Conferences (PTCs) that will be taking place during the first two days of term, Monday 19th and Tuesday 20th August 2024. The purpose of these meetings is for you to share pertinent information about your child with their new teacher so that we can best support their learning journey for the year ahead.
In order to book your PTC, please follow the link below. The booking system will remain open throughout the summer break and will close at 5pm on Sunday 18th August. You can select for your meeting to take place in person (in your child’s classroom) or online using Google Meet. Please remember to enter your child’s new year group and class when making the appointment.

Please note, these appointments are for children in FS-2 to Year 6. FS-1 parents will receive separate information about PTCs due to the staggered nature of the children’s entry to DBIS.
In order to facilitate these start of year PTCs, the children will finish earlier on Monday 19th and Tuesday 20th August according to the times below:
FS-2: 11.30am
Year 1 – 6: 12pm
Please note, children will not have lunch at school on these days.
We look forward to meeting you in August to learn more about how we can support your child to achieve their potential as they continue their learning journey at DBIS.
Best wishes,
Hannah Tait
Head of EYFS and Primary
