Communication with Parents

Upon enrolment at BISC Łódź, all parents are given a ‘Parent Handbook’ containing information on all aspects of school life.

Regular written communication is provided in the form of a weekly newsletter to parents and a system of ‘correspondence books’ for each pupil. These provide the opportunity for written communication between teachers and parents, and also enables parents to monitor their child’s homework.

Each week there is a ‘Round Table’ meeting with parents from a specific age group within the school, eg. Early Years, Primary and Secondary. These meetings are open to all parents and provide an informal opportunity to discuss any issues that may arise.

Formal Parent-teacher meetings for the whole school are held once every term. These are organised on the basis of pre-booked appointments with subject teachers and form teachers. Appointments with the Head of School can be made through the school secretary whenever necessasry.

Parent Teacher Association

A Parent Teacher Association (PTA) will be open to all parents and teachers of BISC Łódź. The main objective of the PTA is to provide a formal channel of communication between parents, teachers and school management, as well as to organise fund-raising or social events. The PTA is also a point of contact for newly arrived parents who may wish to know more about the school or daily life in Łódź.

The main role of the Board is to monitor, on behalf of the parents of the school, the School Development Plan, to ensure health and Safety standards are maintained, to review the annual investment plan and balance sheet, and to assist with marketing.
