ELC Education Service Plan 2018-19 SUMMARY final

Please find attached a link to the Parental Engagement Strategy 2017 evaluation survey.  We are seeking responses to help us to evaluate the impact of the six strands of the strategy for schools, parent council members and the wider parent forum.  The full Strategy document is available at https://www.eastlothian.gov.uk/downloads/download/12712/parental_engagement_strategy

This survey http://links.edubuzz.org/pestrategysurveyforparents is for completion by your Parent Forum and I would ask that the link is shared via Groupcall with all parents and is placed on your school website as soon as possible.

 The survey will be open for completion until Friday 22^nd February, 2019.  Parents only need to complete one survey if they have multiple children at your school, but will need to complete more than one survey for children at different schools.  The survey results will be collated on a school basis which will be shared with the HT and Chair of the Parent Council to support any actions arising shortly after the closure of the surveys.

Many thanks
