In this year of upheaval and change for everyone in our school community, we are hugely proud and heartened to receive such positive feedback from our parents, thank you to everyone who contributed to our Autumn Term Parent survey.
We are delighted to share some of the highlights from the survey and the actions we are taking as a result of the parent feedback.

96% said their child is happy in our school
100% said their child feels safe in our school
90% said the school makes sure children are well behaved.
Feeling safe and happy is at the forefront of everything we do. When children feel safe learning and achieving becomes limitless.

We are listening
Through the survey and your comments, we have recognised there is improvement to be made with the way we communicate with parents regarding children’s learning and what is going on in school, you also requested more varied opportunities outside school. To that end we will:
- Re-introduce class newsletters, issued at the start of term, outlining what children will be learning, any planned trips.
- Advise parents of the best communication route for their concerns.
- Share information on regular activities, such as Forest School, at the start of each year for all year groups
- Organise opportunities for more trips and invite visitors into school to share experiences with our children now restrictions are being lowered.
