Online surveys for education

Online surveys for education: feedback as a driver of good education

Schools, colleges and universities, nurseries, vocational training providers, adult education centres and further education institutions rely on continuous feedback: How good are teaching and learning, how satisfied are learners, parents and employees, and where can quality be improved? LamaPoll is built for exactly this. Educational institutions use it to run pupil, student, parent, teacher and alumni surveys securely and in line with GDPR requirements – with hosting exclusively in Germany.

We now use LamaPoll, for example, to organise our all-day school programme and many other school activities, such as parents helping with sports day, surveys of children and parents, and internal evaluations. The intuitive usability and security standards convinced us, as did the accommodating pricing.

Data protection in education: special care for minors' data

Educational institutions process particularly sensitive data – often data relating to children and young people. In addition to GDPR, the relevant state and school data protection rules apply; for minors, parental or guardian consent is usually required. LamaPoll supports you with anonymous or pseudonymous surveys, transparent consent processes and hosting exclusively in Germany – so you can run surveys at the level of protection required in education.

Surveys for every target group in education

From the classroom and lecture hall to the alumni network: in education, feedback from everyone involved matters. With LamaPoll, you can survey each target group in a focused way – securely, anonymously and in line with GDPR requirements. And not only surveys: digital forms such as registrations or consent declarations can also be created and sent in a legally reliable way.

Pupils & students

Have teaching, courses, study conditions and support evaluated from the learner's perspective. Identify early where teaching and services can improve, and give pupils and students an honest, anonymous voice.

Teachers & lecturers

Measure satisfaction, workload and working conditions among teaching staff. Support school and university development, strengthen teamwork and help attract and retain qualified teachers and lecturers.

Parents & guardians

Actively involve parents – from nursery and school satisfaction to parents' evenings, all-day provision and childcare services. Capture wishes and suggestions in a structured way and strengthen the educational partnership between institution and home.

Graduates & alumni

Survey graduates on their destinations, career entry and retrospective assessment. Evaluate how well training or study prepared them for practice, and maintain an active alumni network for the future.

LamaPoll’s software is an excellent and versatile tool for a large non-profit private school. Sending individual links greatly increased parents’ participation rate in surveys. The ability to design finely branched questionnaires in the Gold plan is remarkable. It also makes it possible to collect all information from families with several children in a single survey.

GDPR-compliant processing and legally reliable consent processes, including for minors
Anonymous and pseudonymous surveys for honest, uninhibited feedback
