1708 Community Consultation Report - 3 August 2017

WHANAU SURVEY June 2017

We had a very good attendance from parents at our mid-year parent/pupil interviews in term 2.

Over the whole school, 165 pupils (out of 271) had parents attend the interview.

One difference was that we gave the written report out AT the meeting and were there to explain it and why we said what we did.

Another thing was our questionnaire that was filled in at the time. We updated lots of out-of-date contact details such as phone numbers and e.mail addresses and found out what the parents thought of various issues.

We have collated all the survey responses below. Thank you all who sent us your feedback.  We have listed a few significant numbers of responses.  We are looking forward to putting some of your ideas into place.  As you will see from the school’s response column this has happened in some instances.  Any further feedback or comment don’t hesitate to contact us.

ICT in our school

Our school does not use chromebooks/laptops/ipads the whole day, we use them in all classrooms at different times for appropriate work.  Children also complete work in books.  Do whanau want us to change our practice and look at what some other local schools are doing - whanau purchase a chromebook and children use them daily?
