Reliable Data
At the core of the OurSCHOOL Improvement System is reliable data that can be used to support evidence-based decision-making. The Tell Them From Me surveys are comprised of research-based school survey measures that were carefully designed and tested, often using a series of questions per measure. Responses to the measures are then provided online through a number of dynamic reporting tools, giving members reliable and valid data in a timely manner on factors known to affect student outcomes.
Not Just An Online Survey Tool
As a company with a strong education background, our focus is on gathering the right data to help school and district administrators improve learning outcomes for students. Our measures are designed by a leading education researcher, Dr. J. Douglas Willms, leaving all the research to us so that you can get straight down to putting the data into action. With the busy educator in mind, our Reporting Tools are unique, practical, invaluable, and enriched with the largest student survey database in Canada, which helps to put your data into context. Our stellar support services mean that whether you’re speaking to Helpdesk or Account Success Management, or utilizing the wealth of member resource documents and videos, the common language is education and student outcomes.
