Impact Number

How many students believe their feedback will be used to make their school better.

Why This Matters

Students learn best when they feel safe, supported, and heard. This survey helps schools understand what students experience each day—what is working well and what needs attention. It helps students, teachers, and principals work together to make classrooms better. When students believe their voice matters, they are more engaged, more connected, and more confident in their learning.

What It Can & Cannot Tell You

It Can Tell You:

  • Can show how many students shared their experiences.
  • Can show whether students feel their school listens to them and uses their feedback.

It Cannot Tell You:

  • Can not explain how individual students are feeling or performing.
  • Can not explain exactly why students feel the way they do without more conversations and follow-up.
