Parents' Questionnaire  
 
Thank you to everyone who has already completed the Parents' Questionnaire.  Your views are important to us, so please do take the time to complete it if you have not done so already.
 
We would like you to complete one questionnaire per child you have in the school as your experiences could be different. Our online questionnaire will only allow you to complete one from each email, so please email us to request for another link to be sent to you. 
 
The pupils will be completing a similar questionnaire in their IT lessons so we can find out what they feel about their school.
ISA Drama Competition at Hurst Lodge School, Ascot

Congratulations to all the performers as well as Kieran and Sam, our sound technicians, who coped well with the unfamiliar equipment.
