The main areas which scored poorly this year were music, sport and behaviour management. We had explained current practice and proposed developments in the annual report and the parents at the meeting had lots of constructive suggestions which we shall incorporate into our development plan.
Parents liked the idea of a regular termly report from the governors on their activities in response to the low score in the survey on parentgovernor communication. The parents were articulate, supportive of the school and full of ideas. Unfortunately, there were only eight of them.
