SayPro Pre-School: Routine Satisfaction Feedback

Objective:

To gauge the satisfaction of children, educators, and parents with the daily routine at SayPro Pre-School, aiming for a positive feedback rate of over 85%. This will help identify areas where the routine is working well and areas that might require improvement to enhance the overall learning environment.

1. Defining Satisfaction Criteria

Satisfaction with the routine will be assessed based on feedback from children, educators, and parents, using the following key areas:

• Children’s Satisfaction: Whether the routine feels fun, engaging, and comforting, providing a balance of structured and free activities.
• Educators’ Satisfaction: How well the routine supports the teaching process, provides adequate time for instruction, and allows for smooth transitions.
• Parents’ Satisfaction: Whether the routine meets their child’s needs for learning, play, rest, and emotional well-being, as well as how easy it is to maintain consistency at home.

2. Satisfaction Measurement Tools

A. Children’s Feedback (Age-Appropriate Methods):

• Direct Observation: Teachers will observe children’s reactions to different parts of the routine (e.g., smiles, enthusiasm, willingness to participate).
• Children’s Feedback Forms (Visual & Simple): For younger children, a simple, child-friendly feedback form with smiley face ratings can be used.
  • Example:
    • 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 – “I like my day!”
    • 🌟🌟🌟🌟 – “I like my day but need more playtime.”
    • 🌟🌟🌟 – “I want more rest time.”
    • 🌟🌟 – “I don’t like when we stop playing.”
    • 🌟 – “I want more fun activities.”

B. Educators’ Feedback:

• Surveys or Reflection Forms: Educators will complete a brief survey or reflection form each month to share their satisfaction with the routine. This will help assess if the routine is helping them manage the classroom effectively and support student engagement.
  • Sample Survey Questions:
    • How do you feel about the balance between structured learning and playtime? (Scale: Very satisfied – Not satisfied)
    • Do you feel that the routine is easy to follow, or does it need adjustments? (Scale: Very easy – Difficult to follow)
    • How well do the transitions between activities work for the children? (Scale: Smooth – Difficult)

C. Parents’ Feedback:

• Parent Surveys: Parents will receive an easy-to-complete survey that gauges their satisfaction with the routine and its impact on their child at home.
  • Sample Questions for Parents:
    • Does your child enjoy the routine at school? (Scale: Yes, very much – No, not at all)
    • Has your child’s behavior or emotional well-being improved due to the routine? (Scale: Improved significantly – Not improved)
    • How consistent do you feel the routine is at home and school? (Scale: Very consistent – Not consistent)
    • Is the balance between playtime, learning, and rest appropriate for your child’s needs? (Scale: Very appropriate – Needs improvement)

3. Feedback Rating Scale

• Positive Feedback Rate: The percentage of respondents (children, educators, and parents) who rate their satisfaction as “positive” (typically 4 or 5 on a 5-point scale).
• Target Goal: Aim for a positive feedback rate of over 85% across all groups (children, educators, and parents).

4. Collecting and Analyzing Feedback

A. Monthly Feedback Collection:

• Children: Teachers will use informal methods to gather children’s feedback (observation, smiley face forms, or simple questions after activities).
• Educators: Reflection forms or brief surveys will be completed each month.
• Parents: A short online or paper-based survey will be distributed monthly or quarterly.

B. Aggregating Data:

• At the end of each month, the feedback from children, educators, and parents will be aggregated. The data will be reviewed to calculate the percentage of positive responses for each group.
• Example of Data Aggregation:
  • Children’s Feedback: 85% of children reported being happy with the routine (based on smiley face ratings).
  • Educators’ Feedback: 90% of educators are satisfied with the balance of structured activities and playtime.
  • Parents’ Feedback: 87% of parents feel the routine supports their child’s development and is consistent with home routines.

5. Evaluating Routine Satisfaction

A. Setting and Tracking Targets:

• After aggregating feedback, compare the satisfaction percentage against the target goal of 85% positive feedback. If any group (children, educators, or parents) falls below this target, the team will take the following steps:
  • Identify Areas for Improvement: Review specific feedback to identify recurring concerns or suggestions for adjustments.
  • Adjustments to the Routine: If children are not satisfied with playtime or rest periods, the routine may be adjusted to provide more flexibility. If educators are struggling with transitions, additional support or resources may be offered.
  • Communication with Parents: If parent feedback indicates dissatisfaction, provide updates or additional strategies to enhance consistency between home and school.

B. Continuous Improvement:

• Use feedback to continuously refine the routine, ensuring that it better meets the needs of all children and maintains a high level of satisfaction from educators and parents.
• Example Adjustments Based on Feedback:
  • If feedback indicates that children need more structured learning time, consider adjusting the schedule to allocate more time for academic activities.
  • If parents request more communication on how the routine supports their child’s social-emotional growth, increase updates and parent-teacher meetings.

6. Reporting Results

A. Monthly Reports:

• A monthly report will be prepared, summarizing the overall satisfaction levels for each group (children, educators, parents) and any necessary adjustments to the routine.
• Sample Monthly Report:
  • Children’s Satisfaction: 87% positive feedback
  • Educators’ Satisfaction: 92% positive feedback
  • Parents’ Satisfaction: 85% positive feedback
  • Overall Satisfaction: 88% positive feedback
  • Action Plan: Based on feedback, adjust transitions to improve consistency, and provide additional materials to support playtime engagement.

B. Quarterly Reports:

• A more in-depth report will be created quarterly, including trends over time and any significant changes made to the routine based on feedback. This will also include a breakdown of any areas where satisfaction was lower than expected and what actions were taken.

7. Summary of Targets and Feedback Process

Conclusion:

By setting clear satisfaction targets and regularly collecting feedback, SayPro Pre-School can ensure that the routine meets the needs of children, educators, and parents. Monitoring satisfaction will help the school make informed adjustments and create a routine that supports optimal learning, engagement, and emotional well-being for all children.
