references
Hi all, My daughter needs a reference for volunteering at a local netball club (she is 14) just wondering whether she should ask her form tutor or a another teacher that she prefers much more (she's had both for a year) or does it not matter at this stage. I assumed it would be her form tutor however she only sees her for about a a couple of hours a week. Is it acceptable for my daughter to approach her subject teachers ?
Thanks
Thanks

Re: references
I suspect it would be fine to ask either, if the school has any sort of policy about who does them then they will let her know when she asks

Its helpful if your DD has something written down to give to whoever she asks. She should set out who/where the reference is to be sent to and what is required, either the criteria set out by the netball club or a brief outline of what she will be doing.
This makes life easier for the teacher and its also good practice for future job applications.
A small thank you for the teacher isnt a bad idea - a few home made cookies or a small packet of fancy fudge/chocolates maybe.
