VLE-specific questions Our Year 9 and Year 11 parents are currently involved in the pilot for our VLE (Virtual Learning Environment) as an online communication and learning tool. Thank you to those Y9 and Y11 parents who took the time to answer the additional questions relating to the VLE as part of the annual parents’ questionnaire. The feedback from parents was that they were interested in being able to access their daughter’s coursework deadline information, homework assignments given, and tracking reports via the VLE. Parents also told us they would be interested is being able to access exam information and timetables, revision materials and weekly school notices. For parents who are currently not part of the pilot, the plan is to involve Year 7 and Year 8 parents next term and Year 10 and Sixth Form parents in September. :
