WhatsApp is the social media platform used mainly for communication with parents. It is currently used to forward school and class notices and announcements, and for one-on-one discussion with parents on matters including:
Parent Consultation Day 2025
During Parent Consultation Day, I conducted a one-on-one briefing with a parent to discuss their child's academic performance and overall progress. I reviewed the student’s recent assessments, class participation, attendance, and submission of assignments. I highlighted the areas where the student has been performing well, as well as subjects or skills where improvement is needed.
We also discussed the strategies being used in the classroom to support the student’s learning, and I offered practical suggestions that the parent can implement at home to reinforce those efforts. I emphasized the importance of consistent communication between home and school, and encouraged the parent to continue playing an active role in their child’s education. The meeting ended with a shared understanding of the next steps needed to help the student stay on track and reach their academic goals.
Use of Social Media 2025
I am pleased to share that I’ve created a WhatsApp page dedicated to my practical sessions and overall class activities in Food and Nutrition. This platform serves as a space where students’ hands-on skills are highlighted, giving them the opportunity to showcase the effort, creativity, and mastery they bring to their practical work. From meal preparation to food presentation, this page captures the vibrant learning experience that takes place in our classroom and lab sessions.
The aim of this initiative is not only to celebrate student success but also to show our wider school community that Jonathan Grant High School is actively doing something positive and impactful in the area of Food and Nutrition. By sharing these moments, we promote school pride and help strengthen support for our programme, encouraging greater student participation and community engagement in the future.
