Parental Feedback

Your input is invaluable to us at Ashbrook School. We believe that your insights and feedback play a crucial role in enhancing the educational experience for our little ones. We invite you to share your thoughts, suggestions, and experiences with us. Your feedback will help us continually improve and tailor our programs to meet the unique needs of our pupils. Whether it's a compliment, a suggestion, or a concern, we welcome all perspectives. Together, let's create an environment where every child can thrive. Thank you for being an essential part of our Ashbrook School community.

Here is the 'You said - We did' section. All feedback is gathered and discussed. In this section you will be able to see the impact of feedback and the positive collaboration between parents and staff.

In the summer term, our annual summer survey was sent out to all. Thank you for the responses to this survey. As a school we are incredibly proud of the feedback. There are some headlines we would like to share:

  • 100% of parents agreed or strongly agreed that their child feels safe at Ashbrook
  • 98% of parents agreed or strongly agreed that their child is happy at Ashbrook
  • 96% of parents agreed or strongly agreed that Ashbrook makes sure that pupils behave well
  • 95%* of those few parents who said that their child had experienced bullying*, agreed or strongly agreed that it had been dealt with effectively
  • 93% of parents agreed or strongly agreed that they are told what their child will learn
  • 80% of parents agreed or strongly agreed that any concerns they may have are dealt with effectively
  • 69% of parents agreed or strongly agreed that Ashbrook has high expectations for their child
  • 89% of parents agreed or strongly agreed that their child does well at school
  • 87% of parents agreed or strongly agreed that they are told how their child is doing

  • 93% of parents agreed or strongly agreed that their child can take part in clubs and activities at Ashbrook
  • 89% of parents agreed or strongly agreed that Ashbrook supports their child's wider development
  • 100%* of parents who say their child has additional needs*, agreed or strongly agreed that their child gets the support they need to succeed

The responses represent our commitment to creating a place where pupils and families have a sense of belonging. They feel happy and safe - and this is wonderful to read. We are also incredibly proud of the responses from parents of pupils with SEND. Our drive to support inclusion for all has been a focus over the last few years.

We will have opportunities in the coming term to unpick the survey results further and will make opportunities available for parents to continue sharing thoughts and wishes for the year ahead.
