The results of the Student Questionnaire and the School Evaluation Parent Questionnaire werediscussed at the school management council meeting on February 8 (Mon), and I would like toshare the results in this letter. Overall, we have received a positive evaluation of over 90%.
On the Student Questionnaire, in regards to their classes , 93% answered that they “Understandwell” or “Understand,” and “I enjoy speaking in class,” and 92% answered that they “Can presentto the class with peace of mind,” which shows the results of the “Nanzan Style” as a basis forlearning. This is also relates to the increased motivation of the faculty.
6% of students gave a negative response when answering the question “Do you enjoy going toschool?” We learned that the main causes vary from day to day, and include things likeunderstanding of the studies and relationships with classmates. We will continue to carefully
instruct and support the students while building individual relationships with them.
From the Parent Questionnaire, we received the same evaluation as last year , but we believethat insufficient dissemination of information from the school regarding the academic
consultation system and special support education is reflected in the results. The contents andinitiatives will be explained at the April Parent -Teacher Conference general meeting.
The Novel Coronavirus pandemic has cast a shadow on everything this past year, but we havespent fulfilling days together by coordinating with families and the community and following theslogan “Nanzan ES, Where every child can learn.”
We appreciate your continued understanding and cooperation in the 2021 -2022 school year aswell.
