    Parent View - Give Ofsted your view on your child's school

    Parents and carers can give their views of our school at any time of the school year and at the time of a school inspection using an online questionnaire called Parent View.

    When our school is notified of the next Ofsted inspection, parents/carers will be invited to give their views about the school to inspectors using the Parent View online facility as this has replaced Ofsted's paper questionnaire. Please make sure we have your most up-to-date contact details.

    Please register with an email address and a password at https://parentview.ofsted.gov.uk. Once your login has been activated, it only takes a few minutes to complete answers to 12 short questions about aspects such as bullying, the quality of teaching, level of homework, etc.

    Your views are important in helping inspectors decide about our school, and to help us know what is going well and what could be improved.

    If you do not have a computer or an email address or if you would like help to use Parent View, please come into school and ask at the School Office.
