PARENT QUESTIONNAIRE RESPONSES 2018/19

Thank you to all those who completed the Parent Questionnaire. The vast majority of responses were very positive and 100% would recommend our school to another parent.

Most of the people (5) who responded “don’t know” to how the school deals with bullying, clarified this by commenting that they had not come across this problem. With regard to “homework”, we have now added this to our School Development Plan to discuss this year.

Many responses alluded to the happiness of the children in our school, the caring and supportive staff and the warm family atmosphere.

The issues of parking, gritting and school meals for all, unfortunately are beyond our control. The Governors continue to highlight these issues to the Education Authority NI and local Roads Service on your behalf.
