Ofsted Parent View is an online survey that allows parents to give their views about their child’s school. By ‘parents’, Ofsted mean any person with parental responsibility for a child at the school.

Parents can complete the survey at any time. It is also the main mechanism for parents to give their views to inspectors at the time of a school inspection.

The survey can be accessed directly from the Ofsted Parent View site, from the homepage of Ofsted website, or by clicking on the Parent View image at the top of the page.

Cedar Mount Academy values this opportunity for parents to give feedback. The vast majority of feedback is extremely positive and where it is not, we have been able to use it to improve what we do.
