Surveys
Parent Survey Summary
We received 72% of the surveys back which is excellent.
The survey shows that overall, parents believe in Allenby and that staff are committed to the development of your child. It also indicates, in my opinion, that we are a strong community where parents support the work and dedication of the school team.
Key areas that we are working on following the Parent Survey results are:
Role Of Governors.
Over the next academic year, the Governors will be hosting coffee sessions to talk about their role with parents.
School Presentation.
Senior Leadership will be holding a workshop after half term to help parents understand how we help children at school, when they have a problem or are worried (our Pastoral care).
