What's a good response rate?
We like to say that gathering at least half of your stakeholder voices is excellent. Striving for a 100% response rate is often unrealistic and there’s no point in setting yourself up against an almost impossible goal. Keep in mind, the response rates can differ among each of your organisation’s groups - staff, pupils, parents, governors, and trustees. If you have run a survey for the same respondent group before, aim to have a slightly larger response rate the next time, as you may have better insight into getting them to respond.
The averages and ranges we have seen for Edurio-facilitated surveys:
- Pupils: 73% (range: 34%-91%)
- Staff: 63% (range: 30%-94%)
- Parents: 30% (range: 8%-70%)
Driving engagement
Getting a good amount of responses is important for you to later have a representative respondent body.
