Stakeholder Surveys
Listening and Responding to Feedback
Our vision is for this school to be a centre of excellence at the heart of the wider community; where the natural curiosity and voice of each individual is valued, nurtured and encouraged to flourish in a safe, secure, happy and stimulating environment enabling everyone to develop high self esteem and to reach their full potential.
As a school we place significant value on the strong relationships we have with all stakeholders. We believe through positive and collaborative relationships our school will continue to improve, providing opportunities for all of our children to be happy, enriched and achieve success.
Keeping Our Curriculum Under Review – Spring 2026
Our school curriculum comprises all learning, assessment and wider experiences that we provide for our children. Designing our own curriculum has enabled us to be innovative and creative in our approach, ensuring learning opportunities are relevant, authentic and driven by the Four Purposes.
Thank you for taking the time to complete our Curriculum Survey; all feedback and comments made by parents have been useful and informative. We have looked closely at the responses and will use these to inform our way forward in further refining our curriculum. Following analysis of the survey we will:
Revisit our Curriculum Principles to ensure the following elements are included: citizenship/community, emotional regulation and wellbeing, positive relationships and social skills.
Reshare our school Four Purposes characters and language with parent/carers in order to raise awareness and support learning conversations at home.
Arrange a World of Work event to promote links with business and industry in order to raise children’s awareness of careers and work related opportunities.
A Curriculum Exhibition will form part of the Learning Conversations during the summer term, in order to showcase a variety of aspects of the curriculum, including STEM.
Parental Survey - Spring 2025
Thank you for taking the time to complete the Spring 2025 parent/carer survey. The survey findings were overwhelmingly positive with nearly all children enjoying attending school, and feeling safe and nurtured in school. Nearly all parents agreed children are offered an interesting variety of learning experiences, and that school keeps parents well informed about their child’s progress. Nearly all parents believe school considers and responds well to feedback, and would recommend Glasllwch School to another parent/carer.
