Meetings and Communication

We aim to create supportive partnership between parents and the school as we strongly believe that effective communication increases the overall progress made by children in Pathways.

Home and School Communication Book and TAPESTRY

We use Home and School Communication Book to share the news about our school day. We do encourage parents to check and write in the book regularly to tell us about their child's time at home. We also use Tapestry to record learning which is taking place in the class through videos and photographs. You can share your child's achievements at home by sending us your own images and recordings through Tapestry platform.

Parents' Evenings

We hold 2 Parents' meetings a year where parents and carers can meet their child’s ARP and mainstream teachers, discuss their child's PLP, SCERTS targets and academic progress. For parents who cannot attend Parent meeting in person, we have an option of the Parents' meeting to be held online.


Annual Review


The Annual Review meeting is held once a year and it is conducted in line with the LA Barnet procedures, reviewing child's progress towards the outcomes of their EHCP.


The following information is collated for the review:


  • School Advice informed by assessment of the child’s progress towards academic targets using the Bsquared and SCERTS assessments

  • Child’s Views in a form of a questionnaire, photographs, videos, Tapestry posts, learning journal to enable children to take part in the evaluation, planning and decision making processes. The Child's Views should identify:

· Strengths and difficulties

· Preferences for learning style

· Skills and interests

· Curriculum and activities

  • Parent's Views

  • Speech and Language Therapy report

  • Other professional's reports (e.g. Educational Psychology, Occupational Therapy, CAMHS report etc.)

  • BMP

  • PLP

  • SCERTS learning grid

  • and any other information pertinent to an individual

The meeting is chaired by the Head of ARP who will send a Report after the Annual Review meeting to the SEN Caseworker and the Admissions Team at the Local Authority.
