SchoolCloud – Parents Evening Software
As you know, we will be running our parents evening using SchoolCloud this autumn.
To access the system, please go to the school’s page at https://stcharlescatholic.schoolcloud.co.uk/. You can access it on mobile phones, laptops, tables and other devises.
Bookings will open on Tuesday 17th November at 9am.
Once you have accessed the system, you can log in and make appointments with your child’s name, date of birth and class. You will be asked to give an email address so a confirmation email can be sent to you.
On the day of your appointment, you will need to sign back into the system and then click on the Join the Video Meeting button.
A short video explaining how to use the system can be found by clicking on https://vimeo.com/user58887693. A guide is also attached.
Links to the website, the help video and the guide are on our website.
Any queries, please contact your child’s class teacher.

St Charles RC Primary School exists to serve the Roman Catholic communities of Ladbroke Grove and its neighbouring parishes.
We are here to educate the children in a community which has the Gospel values, traditions and beliefs of the Catholic Faith at the centre of its ethos.
At the heart of St Charles is a clear commitment to Catholic values where every child really does matter.
The education that the pupils receive here has the Gospel values at its core and as one pupil explained to the Ofsted Inspector, “Our school motto, Love God, Love your neighbour”, really works here.
Our teachers are enthusiastic and strive to encourage a love of learning in our pupils.
We have a broad curriculum where a wide range of teaching styles are used to ensure that every child is given the opportunity to achieve his/her potential.
“Pupils are involved in many activities in and beyond the local community. Visits to the nearby universities raise aspirations for pupils and get them to think about opportunities beyond school.
Working with people who are less fortunate helps pupils to understand the diversity of the community. In addition, it helps them to understand how unforeseen circumstances can affect the lives of others.
Pupils understand the importance of respecting others and appreciate having opportunities ‘to give something back’ to their community.
Many pupils are involved in the choir and orchestra and enjoy performing at a variety of venues”.
