Important Information

PIVOT survey

Teachers at Brentwood use the PIVOT survey as one way to understand the impact of their teaching and to give their students voice in their learning.  The program gives teachers reliable data about their teaching and offers insight into how they can maintain and improve their practice for their classes.  For this reason, we rely on our students respecting and engaging actively in the process.

 

Over the coming weeks your child will be asked to complete a survey in every class.  We ask that you encourage your child to take the surveys seriously and provide meaningful feedback for their teachers.  At the end of the survey cycle, teachers will engage their students in a discussion around the findings from their class survey.

 

Thank you for your support.
