Dear Parent\/Guardian,<\/p>\n

Thank you for attending our recent Parents\u2019 Evening. The feedback received following the meetings and the workshops that were available was very positive. On the night we asked if you could spare some time to complete a questionnaire regarding the working relationships between parents and staff. Your opinions are very important to us and we take these into consideration when evaluating our current practice and considering how we can plan for improvement.<\/p>\n

We received 20 responses to the questionnaire and the results are shown below.<\/p>\n
