Information for Parents
Parent Support
At East Sussex College we recognise that in Year 11 your child will need to start thinking about making some important decisions about their education and future career. Although it’s sometimes necessary to make late decisions, the best way is to get information, advice and guidance early, so that your child can make the right choices.
Parent and Carer Live Webinars
We would like to invite you to attend our webinar series specially tailored for parents and carers of adolescents. The topics have been chosen to reflect core developmental processes in adolescence and common difficulties parents can struggle with. The content is psychoeducational, strategy-based and solution focused.
Further details on each webinar are available to download below. To register please click on the relevant Zoom link. After registering, you will receive a confirmation email containing information about joining the meeting.
Parent Portal
ProView
Our parent/carer Portal is ProView and this will give you access to your young person’s academic progress, attendance records and important college information.
The web address for ProView is https://proview.escg.ac.uk.
2024 Parent Information Presentation
If you were unable to attend our information evenings tailored specifically for parents of students who started their journey with us in September 2024, the Prospective Parent Information Evening presentation is available to view and download below.

What is Further Education (FE)?
FE covers a wide range of types of education which go beyond what has been achieved in primary and secondary education by year 11, but which are not yet at degree level (Higher Education). Typically, FE includes: A levels, AS levels, Apprenticeships, Vocational qualifications and Foundation Learning.
