Findings and conclusions
The project page had 299-page visitors. Of that number, 95 people clicked for further information and 42 of them completed surveys. This is a 14% visitor to respondent conversion rate. This number is quite low, but it was a very targeted survey. The number of respondents using the different access methods were very similar:
- 19 (the highest number) used an email link they had received directly
- 14 came from social media
- 9 from the Let’s talk newsletter
Of the 42 respondents
- 25 (60%) were a parent of a child aged between 2 and 18 years
- 5 (12%) were a professional from a school
- 12 (28%) selected other
When asked if they lived or worked within five miles of Corby Glen Primary School:
- 22 (52%) said they did
- 3 (7%) said they didn’t
- 17 (41%) didn’t respond
When asked about the change in number, of the 22 respondents:
- 10 (45.5%) agreed or strongly agreed
- 1 (4.5%) wasn’t sure
- 11 (50%) disagreed or strongly disagreed
Respondents were asked if they agreed or disagreed with the proposal to change the PAN at Corby Glen Primary School. The following were the results:
| Opinion | Number of responses (percentage) |
|---|---|
| Opinion: Strongly agree | Number of responses (percentage): 9 (21%) |
| Opinion: Agree | Number of responses (percentage): 11 (26%) |
| Opinion: Not sure | Number of responses (percentage): 5 (12%) |
| Opinion: Disagree | Number of responses (percentage): 4 (10%) |
| Opinion: Strongly disagree | Number of responses (percentage): 13 (31%) |
Of the 42 responses:
- 20 (48%) agreed or strongly agreed with the proposed reduction
- 5 (11%) were not sure
- 17 (44%) disagreed
There were comments from 16 respondents, the majority of whom (11) disagreed with the proposal. They cited the new housing being built in the area and number of children who would be eligible for places.
