Parent Survey
Thank you to those of you who completed our parent survey. We are pleased to share the headline results with you all.
We are looking closely at the results and ways we can make improvements based upon your feedback and suggestions.
We are particularly looking into ways we can better inform you about what pupils will learn during the year and how they are doing throughout the year.
100% of parents who responded would recommend this school to another parent.
Help With How To Talk To Children About Russia’s Invasion Of Ukraine
Russia’s invasion of Ukraine is distressing and concerning. Understandably, children and young people may have questions or be seeking reassurance. As always, teachers are supporting children within school with any questions or worries.
Here are some background reading resources to help you think about how you can support children with what they are seeing or feeling:
We should not hide from children what is happening in Ukraine (Schools Week/Children's Commissioner)
How to talk to children about what’s happening in Ukraine (Metro)
We also have a parent support worker who is here if you need any support or are directly affected and want to talk. Please contact the school if you need to arrange a meeting or a telephone call with the parent support worker.
