Our Incredible feedback.....
We really appreciate the help and support we get from all the staff at Amersham School. We are so lucky to be part of such an awesome school with amazing staff! I would like to pass on my thanks for all that you are doing at Amersham School to keep everyone's spirits up and to keep everyone safe. Your calm control of the situation and your excellent communication mean that we can feel reassured that the school is doing all that is possible in a challenging situation and is also strongly encouraging all parents to take responsibility for everyone's safety. Alongside this it has been clear that the drive to provide a high standard of education for the students and continue to encourage them to be the best that they can be has never once been lost. Thank you for doing an incredible job, making the impossible possible with constantly changing, often contradictory guidance and limited resources. We appreciate you and your team for all you have done to make it a safe and happy place for the children. Thanks for all your hard work and commitment - it is very much appreciated. Your wonderful positive energy and spirit absolutely comes through in everything you do. Our child comes home buzzing with excitement! It is wonderful to see, and we really appreciate everything you all do. Thank you! We want you to know how much your hard work, dedication and unwavering commitment are appreciated and valued. From the wonderfully warm welcome you gave our daughter into Team Amersham over the summer, to the incredible protective changes and procedures you managed to put in place before September, as well as the tireless support, positivity and care from you and your devoted staff throughout these challenging times, are just extraordinary. Please forward our message of appreciation to Mrs Jarrett for the leadership and decisive actions that have been made to ensure the school is running as normally as it can. We wanted to say thank you for the brilliant online Year 7 Parents' Evening. Every member of staff was positive, professional and brightened our evening. |
