Teacher evaluation form: gather fair feedback with one link

One loud opinion is not a fair view of a teacher. I want to hear from students, parents and colleagues in the same way. A single link goes to all three groups, and the rows show a pattern.

Who it is for

School leaders, heads of department and tutoring centres who gather views on a teacher once or twice a year. Teachers can also run it themselves, to ask their own classes.

What each question is for

Who is answering: lets you compare students with parents and colleagues.
Four ratings: clear explanations, fairness, approachability and useful feedback on work.
Does well and could be better: two boxes, so praise and advice stay apart.
Pass on without my name: the person says whether comments may reach the teacher.

What a respondent's AI would ask

"Are you a student, a parent or a colleague?" Then "How clearly does this teacher explain ideas?" Then "What does this teacher do well?" It shows every answer and sends only after a yes. Read about agent-fillable forms.

Before you use it

Treat ratings as a start for a conversation, not a verdict. Look for patterns across comments. Browse forms for schools. A teacher observation form adds what you saw in the room, a student feedback form goes deeper on one class, and a presentation feedback form suits a guest talk.

Questions

Can I tell which group gave which rating?

Yes. The respondent_type column records student, parent, colleague or assistant. Filter the CSV by it and compare averages. Small groups are easy to identify, so share only combined results.

Does this replace a formal performance review?

No. It collects views only. Use the rows as one input next to lesson visits and results, and follow your school's own review process for decisions.

How do I stop one person rating a teacher many times?

Share the link only with the group you mean to ask, and set close_at. Scan the CSV for repeats. If you know how many people you invited, set max_responses to that number.

Or paste the JSON

Give this to your AI. It needs the AI Form API MCP server or an API key. It makes the form and sends you the link.
