This is especially great for a special education class, the pages come as the following;
♦ choice of covers
♦ staff in class, students in class
♦ weekly planner
♦ daily conversation page
The daily conversation page is laid out with different boxes and two comment boxes; one for school to fill in and one for parents to fill in.
One aspect of teaching we will all need to tackle at some point will be an angry or annoyed parent or guardian.
By being open, inviting and personable your students’ parents will be impressed with you and the way you manage your classroom. A miscalculated response can backfire, fan the flames of an upset parent and burn the bridges between home and school. This in turn can cause a lot of damage whether there was a basis for the anger or not.
So this encounter needs to be turned into an opportunity for everyone – parents, student and teacher. Although much of this is common sense I have pulled together this ten page booklet with some suggestions for successfully defusing such a meeting before, during and after it arises.
I delivered this CPD session to all members of our staff team who maintain regular contact with parents and other stakeholders, in a bid to improve the quality, accuracy, and clarity of our written communications. I’d recommend that the session takes about 1 hour to 1 hour 30 minutes to deliver.
We had received some negative feedback comments, regarding our communications, varying from examples of poor grammatical accuracy, to instances in which the tone of emails, letters, and other forms of correspondence were perceived as rude. It is surprising how common this is across schools, and how little training is provided on these forms of interaction. Following this training, we are receiving far fewer complaints, and many staff members now keep the help-sheets pinned up by the desks to refer to when communicating with parents.
Participants learn through:
- Participating in a fun pub-style quiz to eradicate common spelling, punctuation, and grammar misconceptions and errors;
- Considering the role of parents, their needs and interests, and what they expect from their child’s school, as a means to understand why schools sometimes receive difficult communications;
- Reading and analysing examples of poor written correspondence, considering how both the tone and the accuracy can be improved;
- Exploring different language strategies to create a personal, polite tone within emails, by considering the connotations of different words;
- Taking away help sheets that can be referred to whenever written communications are being drafted.
The resource pack includes:
- Colourful and engaging whole-session PowerPoint presentation ;
- Examples of written communications for participants to analyse;
- Quiz answer sheet;
- Accurate Written Communication help-sheet;
- Polite Written Communication help-sheet.

(Please note that the only section of the PowerPoint that you may wish to modify is with regards to the distinct features of parents at your own school - Aside from this, the resources are good to go!)
