Year R Parent Questionnaire October 2024

Thank you for all the responses to our Year R Induction Questionnaire.  We received a total of 14 responses. 

Everyone responded positively to the questions about the Inductions Evening/Open Evening and tours, and felt that all routines and systems were clearly explained. A few of the comments shared were:

"The Instagram and Facebook page are very informative".

"Thank you for making my child’s transition as smooth as possible. The change in him in just a few weeks has been amazing. The teachers have made him feel safe and it’s showing in his confidence. So happy I chose Lydlynch".

"My child seems happy going in and coming out of school, and I am happy with the updates and with the school generally. Combination of Year R teachers is wonderful and played a massive part in ensuring my child is happy and settled at school. A fabulous team for little ones. Keep up the good work".

We also asked you to comment on how we can improve this process, here are some suggestions we received;

• When PE kits will be used

In response to the question about the children’s first few days in school, 50% felt this was a good approach.  However, 43% felt that the staggered induction was difficult to organise around life and work commitments, and the part-time induction was too long. We have taken on board the responses we have received, and will be significantly reducing the number of part-time days from next September for Year R children. 

Parent Questionnaire January 2024

Thank you to all of the parents and carers who responded to the questionnaires that were available during January. We are delighted that we had 83 responses and that the outcome was very positive.

Of all of the parents who shared an opinion, 99% of parents agreed or strongly agreed that their child was happy at school. 96% agreed that their child does well at the school and 99% said that they would recommend our school to another parent.

In other comments, 4 parents asked about a variety of clubs being offered to children. We have taken this on board and will look at the possibility and cost of running additional after school clubs in the future.  

We are pleased with the responses given in the questionnaires and are working hard to improve all areas of school.  Once again we would like to thank all of the parents and carers who responded to the questionnaire. If you have any queries please do not hesitate to contact the school.
