Frequently asked questions

How should I share this parent survey?

WhatsApp class groups are the fastest channel. You can also share via email, the school app, or a printed QR code at the gate.

Should the parent survey be anonymous?

Anonymous surveys get more honest feedback. If you need to follow up individually, add an optional name field so parents can choose to identify themselves.

How often should schools run a parent survey?

Once per term is standard. An end-of-year survey captures a full picture, while a mid-term check-in allows faster course corrections.

Is this template free?

Yes. The template and SurveyHeart's free plan cost nothing, with unlimited responses.
