We regularly survey our parent body on a variety of school-related themes to ensure that our parents' experience of school life is continuously considered and improved.

Using the Looking at Our Schools document as our guide, we continuously evaluate the standards identified and the statements of effective and highly effective practice in relation to teaching and learning and leadership in our school.
