Parent View

Parent View gives you the chance to tell us what you think about your our school.

Parent View asks for your opinion on 12 aspects of the school, from the quality of teaching, to dealing with bullying and poor behaviour. Parent View uses the information you provide when making decisions about which schools to inspect, and when.

By sharing your views, you’ll be helping our school to improve. You will also be able to see what other parents have said about the school. Or, if you want to, view the results for any school in England.
