Preparation Checklist

• Invitation: Send out meeting invitations to parents (email or physical notes), ensuring they have all the relevant details.
• Materials: Prepare handouts that outline behaviour expectations, strategies for supporting positive behaviour, and contact information for further communication.
• Classroom Examples: Have specific examples or anecdotes ready to illustrate points but remain respectful of confidentiality and privacy.
• Resources: Gather additional resources (books, websites, local services) to provide parents with ideas for further support.

Additional Notes

• Create a welcoming atmosphere to make parents feel comfortable expressing their thoughts.
• Ensure that the discussion remains constructive and focused on finding solutions for the child's behaviour.
• Monitor time to cover all agenda items without rushing, but also be flexible to allow more time for concerns that may require deeper discussion.

Follow-Up

• Send a follow-up email summarising the meeting discussions and resources shared.
• Offer a feedback form for parents to suggest improvements for future meetings or indicate topics they would like to discuss.
• Schedule individual follow-up meetings if necessary for specific concerns regarding a child's behaviour.
