Dear Parent,
Thank you for returning the questionnaires. 176 were returned, a return percentage of 80.7%. An analysis of your responses is attached. Only 7 questionnaires placed comments in the ‘disagree’ column and I would be happy to discuss your concerns if you contact the School; as you know every child is important to us. Thank you for such an overwhelmingly positive response.
