sharonash Posted June 21, 2007 Share Posted June 21, 2007 Has anyone ever had to carry out a survey to see if there is a need for a setting prior to opening one?if so could you help me with some questions? It might be on a school premises so do you think targeting just the parents of the children attending the first school would be enough evidence? I seem to always be asking questions on here hopefully one day I will be able to contribute! sharon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Wolfie Posted June 21, 2007 Share Posted June 21, 2007 What sort of area is the school in? By that I mean are you in a village or a town? I opened a nursery in a village school and when I was considering extending the age range I distributed my questionnaire to every house in the village as well as two neighbouring villages. I did also send one out with every child at the school to be on the safe side! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted June 22, 2007 Share Posted June 22, 2007 When the pre-school moved from a village hall to the school grounds and was opening an 'after school club' as well, a letter was sent out to parents of childern at the school (and already attending pre-school children) stating what was happening, the benefits etc (or in your case what you would like to do) and then at the bottom of the letter was a reply slip to state whether they would be interested in attending, and if so how many sessions etc. It was basically 'if the facility opened would you consider using it'. Hope this helps Jenni Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
