It's that time of year again when parents get the chance to quizÌýteacher about their child's performance at school.
But what’s the best way to get the most out of your parents evening without becoming a nightmare parent? How do you negotiate the rugby scrum of overrunning timeslots and stick to your allotted 10 minutes? And when you’re the last in a very long queue will you really be getting the full attention of teacher?
Jenni is joined by Rebecca Farnham, ex-English and Drama teacher, and by Angela Epstein, journalistÌýand parent to four children.
