Thanks to everyone who took the time to complete the online survey about Tong’s website – we’ve had a great response.

If you filled it in on Monday (16^th) or Tuesday (17^th) – please send an email titled ‘Confirmation’ to thsego@ths.bradford.sch.uk to let us know you have completed it, as we experienced a technical fault which meant we were not able to capture your details during this period.

Over the next couple of weeks we’ll be reviewing your feedback and developing plans to improve the site. As part of this, we are organising a series of focus groups for students, staff and parents so we can find out even more about what you would like to see on an improved Tong website – if you would like to be a part of this please email thsjbs@ths.bradford.sch.uk

We are currently looking at ways to improve Tong High School’s website – and we want your help.

To do this we’re consulting with students, teachers and parents to find out what they think of our current website and what they would like to see improved.

The survey can be accessed here from 16^thJanuary and must be completed before 2.15pm on 20^th January – that’s next Friday.  This website is for you so please take the time to help us get it just right.

There’s also a massive incentive on offer for people who complete the survey – they will automatically be entered into a prize draw to win an iPad.  Please give us as much information as possible to help us create a website that’s fun, useful and enjoyable to use.
