Parents and carers are by far the most important influence on children’s lives.  Research shows that when parents are involved in their child's learning, children do better at school and throughout their lives.  We would like to get an idea of how you feel about your child's school and to give you a chance to reflect on the partnerships you are experiencing.

Please take the time to answer the questions below, we value all of your responses and will use them to plan for our next steps in parental engagement opportunities and programmes.

Completing the questionnaire should take no longer than 10 minutes and your answers will be kept completely confidential. 

The personal data you provide within this Survey will only be stored by Dundee City Council until August 2019.  The anonymised statistical information will be retained electronically for 15 years and shared internally with Senior Management and Parent Councils Chairs to help focus our improvement and development strategies on the areas you feel are most important for you and your family.  

As this is a National Survey, Dundee City Council will then secure transfer the data to the Scottish Government who will use it “To inform planning and provision of education and where necessary, with the potential linkage of such data to other data sources.   Researchers or charities may be interested in applying for access to education data to meet their own research needs.” [Scottish Government]
