Gender Equity and Inclusion in School Experience Survey

Measures how students of all genders experience fairness, safety, and belonging at school — from classroom treatment to extracurricular access — with an AI follow-up interview that reconstructs a specific incident behind the numbers instead of leaving it as a vague rating.

Q07
Rating ScaleRequired

Overall, how would you rate your school's handling of gender-related issues this year?

Q08
AI Interview

Probe the respondent's safety rating and any bullying experience they reported: ask them to walk through one specific recent situation involving gender at school — what happened, who was involved (teacher, peers, staff), and how it was or wasn't addressed. If they rated safety low or picked bullying, dig into what response from adults would have helped. If they rated things very positively, ask what specifically the school does well that other schools could copy.

Q12
Message

Thank you for sharing your experience. Your answers, along with responses from other students, will be summarized into a report the school uses to identify and fix gender-related gaps — individual responses stay private.

What’s included

  • AI follow-ups

    Adaptive probes on open-ended answers that pull out detail a static form would miss.

  • Attention checks

    Built-in safeguards against rushed answers and low-quality respondents.

  • AI-drafted copy

    Wording, ordering, and branching written by the AI — tuned to your research goal.

  • Auto report

    Themes, quotes, and a plain-English summary write themselves once responses come in.

How it compares

We reviewed the closest templates from other survey tools. Here’s what they do well — and where this template goes further.

Why this template

  • Uses an AI follow-up interview to reconstruct the specific incident behind a low safety or bullying-experience rating, rather than leaving it as an anonymous number
  • Combines quantitative structure (matrix agreement statements, opinion scale, max-diff prioritization, overall rating) with qualitative depth in one flow
  • Captures demographic context (gender identity, grade, school type) needed to segment fairness and belonging findings without making the survey feel like an interrogation
  • Closes with a transparent chat message explaining how responses (including others') will be used, supporting informed consent

SurveyMonkey

Gender At School Survey Template

This is a fielding-ready static template covering gender experiences at school, directly comparable in topic to ours. It benefits from SurveyMonkey's broad template library and established survey logic tools, but it's a fixed question set rather than an adaptive interview. There's no mechanism shown for digging into a specific bullying or safety incident beyond the initial response.

What it does well

  • Purpose-built template specifically on gender-at-school topic, so no need to build from scratch
  • Backed by SurveyMonkey's mature survey platform (skip logic, panel access, benchmarking)
  • Likely quick to deploy given SurveyMonkey's familiar editor and distribution tools

Where it falls short

  • Static question set with no adaptive AI follow-up to probe individual incidents behind a low rating
  • No voice AI interview or guided task/screen-share option for richer qualitative capture
  • No published methodology on how questions were validated or scored, unlike QuestionPunk's transparent prompts
