Dr Spin works his Magic on Parent Survey

It seems that PH and Dr Spin are trying to work their magic again, by telling us, parents love Loretto. With over 600 pupils they managed to get eight positive responses to the Parent Survey. I wonder if PH and Dr Spin shredded the remaining 592 responses. As we have seen before The Inner Circle is so open and honest, it's hard to believe they are so silly to publish this. I would image this is a feeable attempt to try and get more full fee paying pupils to replace the ones that have left due to their bully tactics. Also surprising that PH returned from holidays last Wednesday, and within three days we saw the bully boy tactics removing Grim Rupert's excellent blog, and the publishing of this spin on the schools website. Also if there are eight positive comments, are there eight people in The Inner Circle and they all wrote one each? Why not publish a name against each as these parents are so happy, I can't imagine them stopping this. What will happen next?

What do our Parents say about Loretto?

31 July 2010 Published On Loretto Website

We are currently carrying out some research with parents asking for their feedback and suggestions for improving our website and online electronic communications. Within this survey we have encouraged parents to give us parental quotes about the School. Here is a selection of some comments from parents this week.

Parent comments:


"Our son is so happy at school that he tries anything that is on offer & has discovered talents across a wide range of activities. I am sure that at a larger school he would not have had the personal success that the Nippers has supported him to achieve. Loretto Nippers really is a special place with a true family atmosphere and genuine warmth from teachers to pupils and their families. We are so grateful to the staff for going the extra mile and making his time there so much fun which in turn has led to good academic and co-curricular achievment."

"Loretto Junior School provides an excellent environment for children to grow and flourish. The academic staff encourage each child in their areas of strength while offering support and development in weaker subjects. The range of extra-curricular activities and organised sport is second to none and the growth in my children's confidence and capabilities since starting at Loretto has been most impressive."

"As a relatively small school pupils are expected to contribute to all aspects of school life thus giving each child a well rounded education, producing well balanced, politely confident young adults."

"Loretto is a very friendly, family oriented school. My son has had great experiences at the school,in the happy time he has spent in Seton House, the fun he has had participating in the rugby and cricket teams, the exciting experiences in the navy CCF and Duke of Edinburgh award scheme. He is very much looking forward to the new challenges of the 6th form. The school provides an excellent broad education and has had a very enjoyable time at Loretto."

"We chose Loretto for our daughters after looking at a number of Scottish Independent schools. We had confidence we had made the right choice and it has proven to have surpassed our expectations."

"I love Loretto School, I have four children attending and the school helps to keep us closer as a family and meets the different needs of my children. The staff are very supportive and encouraging, and the school provides a varied and inspiring curriculum."

"Large enough to be a progressive school, but small enough to call it your family!"

"We send our children to Loretto for a traditional all round education governed by common sense principles but also set in a modern approach to matters academic. It is a friendly school and care must be taken to maintain this atmosphere and not to become over rigorous as to unnecessary discipline."
