Dear Parent / Guardian,
I am writing to invite you to our Learning Pathways Parents’ Information Evening to be held on Tuesday 4th February 2025. The time of the session for you to attend is outlined below based upon form group.
These subject choices are amongst the most important ones to be made in Prestatyn High School. This is a crucial evening when we will explain about the subjects and choices your son/daughter will be asked to make for their Key Stage 4 courses next year.
The Options Booklet will be issued to pupils before the evening and the booklet will also be available online on the school’s website. Please bring the options booklet with you on the night. Information has also been given to your son/daughter in assemblies prior to the event. I will explain in the hall the Learning Pathways, the external examinations and the different qualifications available. Information, advice and guidance on making appropriate decisions will be the focus of the evening and establish important dates to come.
There will be an opportunity to look at subject displays about the courses and ask any questions you may have about the options available. Careers Wales will have a representative on hand to advise and discuss the opportunities available. Can I please stress, however, that this is not the evening when we discuss the progress of individual students. The parents’ evening for year 9 will take place on May 6th and any further concerns regarding your son/daughters’ progress should be discussed by appointment with Mrs. Larkin.
Traditionally this information evening is extremely well attended by both students and parents. The evening will be organised in two sessions to ensure that all students and parents derive the maximum benefit from this opportunity to find out more about the many choices available. There is limited parking at school and along Princess Avenue, so with this in mind please try to stick to the times given and where possible to avoid congestion park away from the school.
5:00pm - 5.30pm - Parents & students in Jupiter, Mars, Mercury and Neptune in the Hall, then 5.30pm – 6.00pm browse course and subject displays and talk to subject staff.
6.00pm – 6:30pm - Parents & students in Orion, Pluto, Saturn and Venus in the Hall, then 6.30pm – 7:00pm browse course and subject displays and talk to subject staff.
I look forward to seeing you at the Information Evening. If you have any queries regarding the arrangements, please contact me or Mrs. Larkin.
Yours sincerely,
Mr. A. Hall
Assistant Headteacher
