Y11 Parents’ Evening

Thursday 15 January 4.30 to 7.00pm

We are looking forward to welcoming all families to the school on Thursday 15 January 2026 for Y11 Parents’ Evening from 4.30pm to 7pm.  

This evening is the opportunity for parents and carers to speak with subject teachers about the progress of their child since they have started the academic year. 

Please do support your children to follow the guidance in preparation for the evening.

What should be happening now?

To ensure that you are able to see as many teachers as possible on the night, you should allow approximately 1 hour 30 minutes to navigate around the school.  Please try to leave a 5 minute gap between appointments so you can move between the three key areas that subject teachers are located in. These are: Sports Hall, Gym and The Performing Arts Block

In order to book Parents’ Evening appointments, you should use your My Child At School (MCAS) App. We have worked on feedback from you last year to ensure that this is as smooth as possible. However, if you do experience any issues or need help to book appointments, please contact info@aclandburghley.camden.sch.uk so we can help.

Guidance to support bookings

There are two main ways that you can book appointments using your app, bullet point guidance is given below, and help can be found using the following link:

On arrival you will collect a pack. This will have a printed copy of your child’s report and other key documents including a list of areas that teachers can be found on the evening.

Once you have your report, please make your way to your appointments.
