Parent Survey 2025-2026
Every year, we undertake a Parental Survey. This is a vital part of the school improvement process and allows us to identify what parents feel we do well and what improvements that they feel we could make.
The results from this annual survey are shared and discussed with staff and governors.
Our last survey was undertaken in July 2026 and we had 27 responses. Staff and governors evaluated these results and they will form part of our school development for the this academic year.
​
Thank you to everyone who took the time to complete this year's survey and for the lovely positive comments and things for us to reflect on for the next academic year.
​
Parental positive comments included-
​
​'Really positive experience as a first time parent to school this year - thank you.'
'Thank you for providing such a great school environment'
'Inclusive of all children and great at celebrating success'
'Friendly, nurturing to pupils'
'Know all the children and encourage positive behaviour.'
​
As a school we know we won't get everything right and we know that we all can often have varying opinions on key things in school but as a school we try to make decisions that the majority can get behind. If there is something you feel you want to discuss with us as you are unhappy with how things are done, do please make an appointment to talk to Mr Pitts-Smith about it or for smaller things please do feedback or join the Parent Forum (more details on joining this will be found by clicking here.
