What is Parent View and how is it used?

Parent View gives you the chance to tell Ofsted what you think about our school, from the quality of teaching to dealing with bullying and poor behaviour.

The survey can be completed at any time; you don’t have to wait until the school is being inspected.

Ofsted will use the information you provide when making decisions about which schools to inspect and when and also contributes towards our overall school grade. 

What do I have to do?

Parents are asked to indicate whether they strongly agree, agree, disagree, strongly disagree or don’t know in response to 11 short statements. Question 12 asks whether they would recommend the school to other parents.

The 12 statements and questions are:

1. My child is happy at this school
2. My child feels safe at this school
3. My child makes good progress at this school
4. My child is well looked after at this school
5. My child is taught well at this school
6. My child receives appropriate homework for their age
7. This school makes sure its pupils are well behaved
8. This school deals effectively with bullying
9. This school is well led and managed
10. This school responds well to any concerns I raise
11. I receive valuable information from the school about my child’s progress
12. Would you recommend this school to another parent?

Why should I respond via Parent View?

As well  as the usual ways to let us know how we are doing and the things you think we should work on, it's another way to gain feedback from parents about the quality of education and support in our school. As always, we welcome you to come into school and pass on any feedback at any time, we also have the faciility for you to complete the Parent View survey in school - pop into the office and let us know if you are interested in this.
