What this survey measures
This survey is structured around 4 scales.
Overall Scale
The Overall School Experience Scale provides a single measure of a student's satisfaction by integrating their feedback across all aspects of school life. This includes their enjoyment of learning, the quality of teaching, their sense of safety and wellbeing and their perception of the school's overall culture and community. By analysing these combined responses, the scale offers a powerful and holistic view of a student's engagement and their willingness to recommend the school to others.
Sub-scales
This scale focuses on the core academic experience, including enjoyment of learning and the perceived quality of teaching.
This scale covers the student's sense of safety, mental and physical health and the support systems available to them.
This scale looks at the broader school environment, including pupil behaviour, respect for others and overall satisfaction with school life.
