Safety perception for schools

With this survey, we measure perceived safety, actual safety and employee well-being. It is thus in line with what schools will soon have to include in their safety policy. At the same time, it offers deeper insight into what is really going on within the organisation and where specific improvement is needed. Especially when it comes to (social) safety, employees hesitate to report issues to their managers. A carefully designed investigation makes these signals visible and discussable. Consider manners, willingness to report, perceived support and the actual experience of incidents or undesirable behaviour.

The survey anticipates the Free and Safe Education Act (WVVO), which is expected to come into force in August 2026. Schools must demonstrate annually that they evaluate staff safety perceptions and include them in their policies. This thematic survey supports schools in making this substantiated and future-proof.

• Understanding how safe employees feel in their daily work.
• Early signals on (social) insecurity, incidents and reporting culture.
• Substantiation for evaluating and strengthening security policies.
• Concrete input for conversation towards MR and quality assurance.

• If schools want to structurally and demonstrably evaluate their safety.
• If schools want to align with (upcoming) legal expectations.
• If schools want to identify and discuss risks early.
• If schools want to make targeted efforts to create a safe and open school culture.

This research is excellent to combine with our employee survey. Just looking for a PSA measurement? Then look here.
