​​​​​​​​​​​Parent and Teacher Communication

Edge Hill State School believes regular communication with parents creates a vital partnership and we strive to work closely with every student, their families and the community to provide an outstanding education.

All parents will receive a PowerPoint presentation in the first two weeks of the new year, outlining the upcoming year.  These presentations are in three sections:

  • Whole School Information
  • Cohort Information
  • ​Classroom Information​

Your child's classroom teacher is your first point of contact, and we welcome the opportunity to constructively discuss any aspects of a student's education. This includes their progress, or school procedures, including concerns or compliments. We do ask that you keep communication with teachers outside of class time to ensure children's lessons are not impacted.

Teachers hold their own policy on the use of email as a communication tool and make their position and expectations known at the start of each year. Any email to school or teachers is to be used for official school purposes only, and we remind all parties to communicate in a way that is brief, factual, timely and respectful.

Parents and carers are asked to understand the time limitations in a teacher's day and anticipate responses will take over 24 hours to receive a response.

Our other staff, including the school Chaplain, Deputy Principals and Principal are also happy to meet with you and support your family's needs.

There are several points during the year when we focus on providing a formal opportunity for parents to meet their children's teachers. The dates of these meetings are advised through class and school newsletters.​

Parent/Teacher Interviews

Years P-6 parent-teacher interviews are held at the end of term1/beginning of term 2 and the end of term 3/beginning of term 4, depending on the availability of timeslots.  This interview is for the discussion of your child's progress.  Teachers will send home information on how to book a time slot to meet.

Report Cards

Reports are emailed out at the end of term 2 and 4.

Parents are welcome to approach class teachers if they wish to discuss their children's progress.
