Provincial Satisfaction Surveys

Alberta Education commissions random sample surveys annually of senior high school students, parents of K-12 students, teachers, parents of students with severe special needs, school board trustees, superintendents, principals, self-identified Aboriginal senior high school students, parents of self-identified Aboriginal students in the K-12 education system, and the public.  These surveys are conducted by telephone to gather provincial level information on the quality of education in Alberta.  The results are summarized below.  Selected results also are reported in Alberta Education’s  Annual Report.
