Concluding Quarter 1

Midterm Progress Reports

Our first quarter finishes this Friday, 16 October. Families of Primary students, whose child has enrolled in school for twenty school days or more this quarter, will receive the midterm progress report on Tuesday, 20 October, ahead of the upcoming Parent-Teacher Conferences (see below). This report is a snapshot of progress so far in each of the subject areas based on formative and assessment data gathered during our Distance Learning program and our days back on campus. A detailed report card will be sent at the end of the first semester in December.

Parent-Teacher Conferences

Next Wednesday and Thursday afternoons (21-22 October), we will be hosting Parent-Teacher Conferences for each student from ELC to Grade 5. These 15-minute conferences with your child's teacher(s) are an opportunity to hear how your child is progressing so far this school year, what your child's goals are, and next steps for Quarter 2.

In this half-day format, all students will attend regular classes in the morning and then be dismissed from school at 12:00. The conferences will take place between 13:00-17:00 on both days with families choosing an available slot that works with their schedule. There will be no after-school activities on these two dates. Please note that there is NO SUPERVISION after school on either date.

To remain aligned with our health and safety protocols, we have made the decision to host the conferences virtually this time. The virtual format also allows for some family members to join a conference who are currently working/traveling outside of Lusaka. We will be sharing conference sign-up details soon so please keep a look out for that email communication.
