    Hello all,

    Our staff would like to conduct a short survey with parents of children attending our school over the next month or so. It is a large school, 300+ families, what is the best tool to use for this? We completed a paper survey a few years ago but as we are hoping to achieve our first Green Flag for recycling we are hoping to avoid doing it in this manner again :-)

    Thanks.

    surveymonkey should do the trick just fine.

    Are there any limitations with surveymonkey? I've never used it but I know that some places give a limitation of 20 surveys etc.

    you're a school, presumably you can afford to pay the small amount of cash that removes any limitations.

    So there are limitations?

    Are there any free mediums of doing a survey?

    Yes google docs don't charge, With survey monkey you pay if over 10 questions, also on the free account you are limited to so many replies for free either 100 or 200, not sure of other limitations. Also Google docs is easy to use but you must have and account

    I must have an account or each parent who answers must have an account? Thank you for your reply.
