A suggestion box for your classroom
Many students never raise a hand, even when they have something to say.
They worry about looking silly, or about who will find out.
A private box lets them tell you, and lets you answer.
The problem
Asking a question or raising a concern in front of the class, or in the principal's office, is exactly what a shy student avoids.
Handwriting is easy to recognize, and everyone can see who walks up to the box.
When a suggestion gets no answer, students decide the box is for show and stop using it.
Where to put it
"What would make this class better?"
Students scan the QR code or open the link. No name and no email needed.
"How was this unit?"
Five faces and an optional note, so you see how a topic landed while there is still time to adjust.
"What should we change at school?"
Students post ideas and vote on them, and see which ones are Planned, Doing or Done.
Start in three steps
- Claim your free suggestion box and print the poster it comes with.
- Put the QR code in the classroom, on the course page or in the parents' newsletter.
- Reply to every message. Students read your answer on their private link.
Questions
Is it a safeguarding or emergency line?
No. It is for ideas, questions and concerns. Make sure students know who to talk to when someone is at risk, and keep that route separate.
Who is it for?
Students aged 13 and over, parents and staff. It is not meant for younger children.
Can parents use it too?
Yes. Share the same link with parents, or on the Business plan give them a box of their own.
