Headteacher Update Friday 10th March 2023 Dear Parents/Carers, This is quite a long Headteacher update this week so I apologise in advance! Industrial Action Next Wednesday and Thursday (15th and 16th March) are the final two days of Industrial Action scheduled by the NEU. School will be open to ALL pupils and contingency plans are in place to combine classes if required. Your child should attend school as normal on both days. Parental Survey Results We received 111 responses to the Parental Survey that ran all of last week. Thank you SO much as this is the largest response to any survey we have ever put out! The results to the questions asked were: Strongly Agreed Unsure Disagree /Agreed My child is happy at school: 94% 3% 3% My child feels safe at school: The school makes sure pupils are well behaved: Any incidents of bullying are taken seriously and dealt with swiftly: The school makes me aware of what my child will learn during the year: When I have raised concerns with the school they have been taken seriously: The school gives my child the support they need to succeed: The school has high expectations for my child: There is a good range of subjects available to my child at this school: My child can take part in clubs and activities at this school: The school supports my child’s wider personal development: I would recommend this school to another parent:
