Feedback from Parent Meetings

Feedback from Parent Meetings
Thanks again to all the parents who attended our meetings last week. We’ve now collated the feedback and summarised the key discussion points and suggestions. Several themes have emerged, such as sharing curriculum information, reports, parents’ evenings, consistency around behaviour and also improvements to communication processes. We’ve already been able to implement some “quick fixes” in response to the points your raised. Our Senior Leadership Team will now continue to focus on the bigger, long-term aspects. We appreciate your input and look forward to working together in the future, and to keeping you updated on further progress.

You said…

We did….

We can’t see C4 and C5 detentions on Arbor.

Arbor amended to show this.

We don’t know who the CDCs are.

Updated list in Newsletter and on Website.

We’d like more information about key dates and events.

Will be shared via the Newsletter half-termly.

It creates anxiety to receive a notification saying child was not in CDC when it later transpired they were at an intervention or a few minutes late.

Changed process to only send SMS notification if student is absent from CDC and Period 1.

We’d like to see prompt response and actions from Pastoral team.

Additional Assistant Pastoral Manager to be in place after Easter to increase capacity in Pastoral Team and allow for one APM per year group.

Additional Pastoral Support Officer appointed to provide additional administrative support in the Pastoral office.

We need more information about what students are learning/curriculum overview.

Curriculum “maps” shared on the website for each subject for years 7 to 13.

We would like more opportunities to meet with staff and other parents.

  • Follow up “parent meeting” planned for summer term to feedback on actions from this meeting and discuss other next steps.

  • Plan to invite parents in for coffee and opportunity to sit in on year group assemblies during the week of 9 June.

Further details of both to be shared closer to the time.
