Staff feedback and comments from the recent annual survey
Staff feedback and comments from the recent annual survey
In the autumn term, the South Lincolnshire Academies Trust conducted an annual survey with students, parents and staff from all three schools who are part of our Trust. We had an overwhelming response with 1,390 students, 563 parents and 278 staff giving their feedback, which was completely anonymous.
From this we can identify where we need to make improvements but this also gives us an indication of how you think we are doing.
As you have taken your time to give us your feedback, we wanted to share with you some of the results and comments from staff that were specific to Spalding Academy.
Staff results
92% – I am proud to be a member of staff at Spalding Academy
95% – Spalding Academy is well led and managed (clarity of the Headteacher)
90% – Pupil behaviour is at least good at Spalding Academy
