Principals, teachers, and family liaisons can spot gaps in communication, scheduling, and support. If you need schoolwide parent feedback alongside this, the School survey for parents form collects overall satisfaction and climate insights. For a shorter pulse tied to one event, try the Parent engagement survey form. Together, these inputs help you set priorities, remove barriers, and plan actions families will notice next term.
Must Ask School Family Engagement Survey Questions
- How welcome and respected do you feel when you interact with our school?
This tells you whether families experience respect and belonging from the front office to the classroom. Scores here guide staff training, greetings, and translation support to build trust.
- How easy is it to communicate with teachers and staff about your child's progress?
You will learn which channels work (email, text, portal) and how quickly families expect replies. If many struggle to meet, streamline scheduling with the Parent teacher conference sign-up form.
- Which school events or programs help you engage most with your child's learning?
Responses reveal which events drive real learning at home, not just attendance. You can shift time and budget toward those formats and retire low-impact activities.
- What barriers make it hard for your family to participate (time, language, transport, childcare)?
Naming barriers makes fixes obvious and measurable. The answers point to solutions such as childcare during meetings, interpreters, transportation help, or flexible hours.
- What is one change we could make this term that would improve your family's partnership with the school?
This open-ended item surfaces one concrete improvement you can deliver this term. It creates a quick win and shows families their feedback leads to action.
