Tuesday 11th and Wednesday 12th of October will see three respected school leaders, visit our school. The purpose of their visit is to work with staff, governors, children and parents to review the provision in place at Haytor View.
We are keen to receive independent feedback from leaders with other school experience, both to identify what is unique and special about your school, as well as considerations for further development and focus.
The children are being encouraged to share their experiences of Haytor View with the visitors, alongside this we would welcome parents to engage the visitors in discussion about your experiences and thoughts.
The wider the feedback the visitors receive, the richer the feedback we will receive as a school, this will greatly support the school as it strives to improve the quality of service which is provided for you and your children.
Many thanks for your help – Kate Galling
