Dear Parent,
Thank you for returning the questionnaires. 198 were returned, a high return percentage of 73.3%. An analysis of your responses is attached. Only 12 questionnaires placed any comments in the ‘disagree’ or ‘strongly disagree’ columns. As you can see from the analysis, this is a very small minority. If you are one of the parents with concerns, I would suggest that you contact the school to discuss any issues. As you know every child is very important to us.
