EDUCATION bosses have taken the bold step of asking pupils, parents and teachers for honest feedback on Glasgow's schools.

For the first time they will have a say in services that impact almost everyone in the city.

A new survey has been published online for anyone with a vested interest to fill in: www.surveymonkey.co.uk/r/3CDKMDJ

Chris Cunningham, City Convener for Education, Skills & Early Years, said: “The survey, which should take no more than ten minutes to complete, is your chance to tell us what you think.

“The information you provide will be used to help improve our schools and we will share the findings with everyone once we have collected all the responses.

“Of course we have asked stakeholders in the past how they view education in the city - as part of the council’s annual Household Survey - and in smaller, localised surveys across our nurseries and schools - but this is the first citywide survey we have carried out in a long time.

“To make the data worthwhile, we need as many people as possible to take part. Education affects us all – so please make your views known.

“You can then all help to shape an education that will meet the needs of every one of our children and young people and regardless of their circumstances.”

The survey is open until Monday, May 21 and the results and recommendations will be published in the new school term in August 2018.
