Dear Parent/Carer

Gathering evidence for School Improvement

Each year we take a look at our work and gather opinions around how we might best improve the learning of young people.

This year we focus that feedback on two key areas of our School Improvement Plan for next session – family views on classroom learning and school feedback on student progress – and we would really like to hear the views of all of our parents and carers. Accordingly, we have put together a very short survey which you can find by following this link:

We simply want you to tell us how you think we are doing in these areas and/or how we might improve the learning experience in our school. There is also an opportunity to add any other comments that you might wish to make around school improvement.

I do hope you will give us your opinion – the survey takes only minutes to complete and we would really value your views.

Yours sincerely

Gavin Clark

Headteacher
