NEWSLETTER Friday 24th January Dear Parents and Carers, This has been another busy week, particularly for our sixth form, who are now receiving offers each day for their university applications. I am delighted to share with you that we have had prestigious offers for our students and that so far these include an offer for a student to study History and Politics at Merton College Oxford and Maths at King’s College Cambridge and also for Medicine. It is exciting for us all when our students hear such news about their potential next academic pathways.
Thank you to all parents who attended our year 8 parents’ evening and I do hope that you found the evening essential in letting you know how to support your child. We were delighted with the parent feedback questionnaire results taken from this evening. 127 parents took the time to carry out our survey and the results told us that parents feel extremely positive about the academy. 99% of parents said they would recommend Cowes Enterprise College and every answer has had a very high percentage of parents agree or strongly agree we are doing well. Highlights include that 98% of parents say their child does well here, 97% of parents say their child feels safe and 95% say their child is happy and that we have high expectations. The questions we ask at parents’ evening are for an internal questionnaire, but the questions mirror the Ofsted parentview questions. Parents are able to share their views of the academy at any time at https://parentview.ofsted.gov.uk and it is extremely helpful for us to have parents who are happy with the academy share their views directly with Ofsted. My parent surgeries continue this term on Tuesday afternoons. Please either email dharrison@cowesec.org or phone the school on 01983 203103 asking for Donna Harrison to book a pre-booked slot.
