The School Opinion Survey (SOS) is the department’s largest long-running data collection, conducted annually in Term 3 since 1998 across all Queensland State Schools, with around 700,000 respondents each year. It gathers feedback from students in Years 5, 6, 8 and 11, staff including principals, and parents/caregivers at each school. The survey assists in identifying the school’s strengths and areas which may need improvement.

Key dates

Data collection: 27 July–21 August 2026

Report distribution: October 2026

School Opinion Survey forms

The School Opinion Surveys suite includes surveys for parents/caregivers, students, students in special schools and staff. Below are example questionnaires for each survey type. All surveys are administered online, except for the parent/caregiver survey, which is administered as a paper form in selected remote schools only.

Survey results

Results of the School Opinion Survey are reported in school annual reports, the departmental annual report, and ministerial portfolio statements. Data is confidentialised to ensure individual respondents cannot be identified. Schools are encouraged to share their SOS results with their school community. Individual school reports can be requested from school administration or regional offices.
