PARENTS’ AND CARERS’ VIEWS OF THE SCHOOL
October 2022
Dear Parents/Carers
A HUGE thankyou to the parents/carers who took the time to complete our parent questionnaire during our Parent Consultation meetings before half term. We have had 37 responses (80%) ranging from Reception to Year 2.. We are delighted with the positive comments given to us about the Quality of Education, Behaviour, Personal Development and Leadership here at Bracebridge and that 100% of parents surveyed would recommend our school to another. Everything, we strive to do is to ensure our children are provided with the best possible opportunities to ‘Be the Best they can be! ’
We cannot do this alone and need your help. So thankyou for your continued support!

Things we do well.
Things we could improve
You said ……. | What we did/are doing/have done |
Waiting on the street in the mornings – why in morning and not in evening | We have found that children come into school much more settled and promptly when unaided first thing in the morning. This in turn maximises learning time. The gate is open in an evening so parents can speak with teachers directly should they need to without disrupting any learning |
Teachers need more treats and cakes, more coffee breaks, medal and more rewards for their ever-amazing work with the children and parents | Teachers do not wish to receive gifts, cakes or treats- we are all very proud and privileged to serve your children. However, donations of resources for school are always appreciated but NEVER expected. |
Clarify which gate they use for school – use bigger one to save crowding to get in/out | The double gates are an emergency exit only and cannot be used daily The Nursery and main gates are both open in the morning. |
As always, thankyou for your continued support in working with us to provide the best possible education for your child here at Bracebridge
