Parent Suggestions
Dear Parents,
Every two years we send out a Parent Questionnaire on your thoughts about the school and your child's education. In order for us to continue this dialogue between times, we are introducing a SUGGESTION BOX.
This should not be seen as a way of complaining or raising concerns which should always go immediately to Ms. Goss. It should be seen as another method for improving the environment and education of your child/ren and the dialogue between home and school.
Please write your suggestion below and post it in the box which is sited in the school foyer. Your name is not compulsory but would assist in giving personal feedback.
Thank you for taking the time to help us.

Suggestion/s:
How can I help my child?
These pages are designed to provide general information on a variety of subjects such as details of the school uniform or information on the school meals provided at Marshfield Primary School. Use the links in the left hand column to find out useful information about the school, download holiday request forms and homework help ideas and much more.
Useful websites
We have made links to websites that contain valuable information that can help you help your child. While every effort is made to ensure that information on these sites is up to date and correct we have no control over their content. Please also note that education in Wales is precised over by the Welsh Assembly. Some of our links may link to information that is only relevant to English schools, for example information about SATs.
