Find out how Risedale School is using your invaluable feedback to drive positive change and support our "Family of Learners" to be their BEST.
We are pleased to share the results of our recent Stakeholder Voice survey, conducted just before the half-term break. This feedback is a vital part of our commitment to continuous improvement, helping our Senior Leadership Team celebrate our successes and identify key areas for growth. We are incredibly proud of the progress made over the last year and would like to thank every parent and carer who shared their invaluable perspectives.

Areas for Improvement and Focus
As always, we are driving improvements forward. Here are some key points we are focusing on, linked to the feedback received:
- Even greater consistency and timeliness of responses to negative behaviour
- Further staff development to ensure even more consistently high standards of teaching and learning
- Creating more of a sense of belonging in school through improved access to enrichment opportunities, such as clubs and trips
- Sharing more explicit information with pupils about their targets in subjects
- Improving the school environment
- More work on addressing derogatory language/behaviour and following up on the success of actions put in place to address any cases of bullying
- Engaging parents and carers more effectively to ensure we work in partnership to secure progress and learning
Update on Homework
It may also be of interest to you that last year, some parents/carers felt that the school was not setting homework enough, and they did not know enough about their children’s homework. In response to this, we now set homework more routinely across the subjects, and a homework timetable is in place. We have also implemented pupil planners and ask pupils to record their homework in these, to support this. Parents are encouraged to look in their child’s planner on a weekly basis.
