Parents are asked to complete a short survey form on the occasion of each year specific Parents’ Evening. Questions relate to all of the key aspects of school life: safety, pupil progress, quality of teaching, quality of support for pupils, behaviour, preparation for the future, extra-curricular provision, quality of leadership. The results of each survey are issued to the parents of each year group and then at the end of the year all of the results of compiled and published on the school website.
