During March and April the Bureau is conducting Focus Groups with parents in various towns and regions to gather their views about such things as the quality of their children’s schooling, and whether parent organisations are effective at connecting families with schools.  The findings will inform the questions that are developed for a forthcoming National Survey of parents. These Focus Groups are being organised locally by parent associations in various towns and regions. While each Focus Group is being assembled at the local level, and involves local parents invited by the organiser, you can still have your own say through this website about the quality of the schooling your child is experiencing, or how effective your local P&C organisation is. Send us your views directly by clicking on the feedback signs above this blog.
