What can we do to improve?
Communication of key dates as soon as possible to allow working parents time to make arrangements
Too much homework
Homework could be more challenging as on occasion done without any effort
More opportunities for sporting activities
Introduce field trips- perhaps overseas for older pupils
Reception start time a bit early
Perhaps clearer guidance on expectations with homework and instructions
Keep doing what you are doing
More after school clubs
More wrap around acre before and after school
Relax on rules a little now
Be flexible with amount of homework that is achievable
Trips swimming
Provide regular feedback on homework and classwork
School lunches have declined
Offer more zoom lessons during COVID times
More sporting offsite
Actions:
Expectations to be set for each year group on homework
Now COVID restrictions have lifted school trips to start again
Link with other schools to arrange more sporting events
