Parents Evening Monday 31st January and Tuesday 1st February 2022 School Cloud - Online Appointment Booking
21/01/2022
Dear Parent/Guardian,
We would like to invite you to attend our virtual Parents Evening between 3:40pm and 6pm on Monday 31st January and Tuesday 1st February 2022.
The school have previously introduced an intuitive and easy to use online appointment booking system called School Cloud. This is a part of the parent pay system that we already operate in school and has been highly recommended by local schools.
This system allows you to choose your own appointment times with your child’s class teacher and you will receive an email confirming your appointments. All bookings will be allocated a ten minute slot and the session will close automatically at the end of this time period.
The booking portal for appointments will be open from Monday 24th January at 9am.
Please visit https://barcroftprimary.schoolcloud.co.uk/ to book your appointments.
We hope that this will be a way forward whilst we are limiting the amount of visitors in school but ask you to bear with us and let us know if you experience difficulties so we can work together to find a solution. We have included a link below to the guide booklet, which will help you if you have any immediate queries.
