Parent Carer Survey - We Need You! Please complete by 4th July.

It's that time of year again.

We hope as many of you as possible can complete this survey to help us make improvements for next academic year.

You do not need to include your name, although it can help. Disclosing your name gives us the opportunity to directly act upon your feedback and understand a bit more about your perspective (so we can improve the school further and also resolve any misunderstandings). Please note, if any concerns are raised about child protection, we may have to pass any information we receive to the social services or the police.

Please answer each question. Completed questionnaires will be confidential to the Headteacher, Deputies and the Chair of Governors, although we will give an anonymous summary to our Governing Body. The more specific you are in your response, the more effective we can be in taking onboard your feedback.

We thank you in advance.

Now summer is here, please remember to send your child to school with a hat and wearing sunscreen applied before school.
