Appeal of parents' evenings waning, says schools minister
Traditional parents' evenings are becoming less popular and schools should consider other ways to communicate with families, the schools secretary, Ed Balls, said today.
Speaking at an event today on the government's Parent Know How programme, which aims to develop new and innovative ways of helping parents access information and support, Balls said research shows parents prefer informal chats with schools staff instead of parents evenings and want to get information on their children's progress online.
