At Risca Primary, we truly value the strong partnership between home and school. We know that when we work together, our children thrive—becoming happier, more confident learners who can reach their full potential. By building relationships based on trust, respect, and support, we create the best possible experiences for every child.

Our commitment to the Four Purposes is at the heart of everything we do. Working closely with families and our wider community helps us support our children to become:

• Ambitious, capable learners

• Enterprising, creative contributors

• Ethical, informed citizens

• Healthy, confident individuals

Below is an overview of some our Family & Community Engagement Events for this academic year. We hope you’ll be able to join us—your involvement means so much and helps us celebrate your child’s learning, progress, and achievements together.

Parent / Carer Workshops

Throughout each academic year we run a variety of workshops for parents and carers which cover a number of themes, including: e-Safety, Maths, RSE, Transition, Growth Mindset and Reading. These sessions provide parents and carers with important information enabling them to further support their child as they progress through our school.

Parent / Teacher Consultations

Formal parent consultations are held twice a year, once in the Autumn Term and once in the Spring Term. Teachers or the Headteacher are available at the end of most days to talk to parents if there are any concerns.

Curriculum Information

Year Group curriculum information is posted on the school website on our Year Groups pages at the beginning of each project, informing parents of the areas of learning being covered. These outline learning ahead so that parents can support their children’s learning at home.

Reports

Formal reports on children’s progress are sent out in the Summer Term. Next steps in learning are shared and parents who wish to do so are invited to discuss these with the class teachers.
