surveys

Online survey: clear, friendly, responsive

Responses from questionnaires are stored in our databanks

Pupils and students can still complete on paper, if you prefer

Questionnaires are fetched by secure courier and logged in the SHEU offices

Questions are composed collaboratively with clients and designed with the pupils and students in mind

Special Needs and Short Stay Schools

All our surveys have been adapted for use in different settings, like short stay schools (PRUs) and special schools. For example, when conducting a survey across an authority, we often produce versions for special schools and for short stay schools.

We are happy to meet requests to get the questionnaires translated.  [Click on the picture to see a larger version of a page of the primary questionnaire in Polish.]

Prices

Prices can range from less than £100 to carry out a primary school parent perception survey online, to some hundreds of pounds to do a full lifestyle survey on paper with secondary school pupils in two year groups.

Reports

What do you get back?

We are experienced in producing reports for a variety of purposes and audiences:

Single-topic Surveys

We have developed specialist surveys, mostly for secondary-age pupils, in the key target areas for public health improvement:

  • Alcohol, drugs and tobacco
  • Bullying and Emotional Well-being
  • Food and physical activity
  • Sex and Relationships

We have conducted other surveys in the past with different topics:

  • Smoking
  • Environmental education
  • Governor surveys
  • Staff surveys

We can adapt one of these to suit your requirements or develop a new survey with you.

Online Surveys

Surveys can be completed on paper or online.

We launched our online survey service in 2004 and at the time we had the idea that nearly all our survey work would be online by now.  While the proportion of work online has increased, some clients find that paper questionnaires are still more convenient for them.  But what are the benefits of doing a survey online?

Secondary school surveys

A longer and more thorough questionnaire can be designed for secondary-age pupils.
You can find the answers to questions like:

Primary school surveys

Hundreds of primary schools carry out surveys with SHEU every year. 

Our questionnaires have versions for KS1 and KS2 primary pupils.

We can help you answer questions like:

  • Do our KS1 pupils feel safe at school?
  • What do our KS2 pupils have for breakfast?
  • Are KS2 pupils aware of illegal drugs?

To see what sort of reports you can receive, see our Reports page.

Lifestyle surveys

SHEU is perhaps best known for its lifestyle surveys, available on paper and online, which cover a wide range of topics related to health and well-being.
