Can you comment on what we do well as a school?

  • My kids don’t speak English I can see the different when they started the school. My kids like the school very much.
  • Making parents feel involved in everything.
  • Good learning. Great staff.
  • All staff are all a good kind team and are always doing the best for my children.
  • You are great at embracing all backgrounds and broadening their minds. Accepting all faiths and celebrations.
  • Your good at learning kids’ geography.
  • The support from school is unbelievable!
  •  Always keep children safe and remind them to wash hand.
  • The school community itself is really friendly and I really love that about this school.
  • When the kids have not been at school home learning and the zoom meetings have been brilliant.
  • Great leadership. Always above and beyond for pupils, parents and community
  • You help make the children happy, and well educated. This is what schools are for.
  • I would like to say a massive thank you to all the staff especially Mr Tankard you’re doing a great job, I’m rest assured that my child she is in a safe hands while in school environment.
  • Communication and including everyone.
  • You talk to us about what we want.
  • My child really enjoys school and all the activities that go with it, even through home learning his enjoyed looking at all the fun updates on Twitter and competitions.
  • Being there for the children through these hard times and still doing the best you can for them to still celebrate holidays such as Christmas to be normal as possible.

Can you comment on anything we could do better as a school

  • No, you just doing great.
  • Everything good continue.
  • More educated the children respect the parents and listen.
  • Try to talk to children more about bullying as a bad behaviour and suppose anti- bullying reward.
  • More communication and earlier information for working parents. About events at school.
  • Teach kids more common sense and more things to do with real life things they will use when leaving school.
  • The only thing I’d probably advise is just to maybe add in some exercise activities for home.
  • I think you are doing so well, you don’t really need anything!
  • I would like to recommend to have a list of activities happening in school every term to help parents to prepare and it will motivate to be planned ahead, and in another hand no child will miss out to participate, I’m glad I have seen a letter come out recently with a list well done again.
  • Everything is good in this school. I have no objections
  • I feel that there are a few parents who believe the rules do not apply to them. Walking around with no mask/ face coverings. Or wearing them around their chins. I believe this needs to be addressed with more authority. I’ve seen parents block door ways to classrooms, as they talk to teachers without masks. This is not fair to the teachers. Nor is it fair to the kids trying to get in to their class rooms and are unable to social distance safely.
  • Ask the parents to stay away from the gate they make it hard to access.
  • Can’t think of anything brilliant school with brilliant staff.
  • Try to get the women to stop smoking outside the school gates
