When you begin using wellbeing surveys, you will be using the questions within the Categories and questions tab. These questions were made by an expert in the field of educational psychology and range over 21 different categories of wellbeing. These questions will be selected at random, and rated on a scale of 0-10 and allow for open feedback.
You can also add your own set of questions to be integrated with the pre-made questions. To add these, select the Custom questions tab, select Add question and type in your question.ÌýYou can add as many custom questions as you like and include three in each survey.ÌýPlease note: these will also be scored on the 0-10 scale and are able to be commented on.

Once you have made your bank of custom questions, add each question to feature in the next survey. These will reset for the next survey to make sure you aren't asking the same questions every survey.
Once you have made all the changes to your settings, click Save survey at the bottom of the page, and your survey will send out when you have selected it to.
