Student Perception Survey

Survey Overview

We understand teachers are dedicated to supporting student success and continually improving their instructional practice. However, often the data available to guide that improvement lacks direct feedback from students. 

New York City Public Schools (NYCPS) partners with Panorama Education to administer the Student Perception Survey, a confidential, research-based, and anonymous student survey used nationwide to provide teachers with valuable feedback from students about their classroom experiences. 

The Student Perception Survey is for formative purposes only, and is NOT part of Advance, New York City’s teacher development and evaluation system. 

2025-26 Student Perception Survey Administration

The 2025-26 Student Perception Survey will take place from December 8, 2025 to January 16, 2026. 

Survey Coordinators are invited to join a virtual training hosted by the Survey Initiatives Team to get ready for this year’s Student Perception Survey. Each one-hour session will provide: 

  • Important survey reminders and updates 
  • Opportunities to interact with other survey coordinators 
  • Discussion of best practices 
  • Q&A with the Survey Initiatives Team

Training Dates and Times

Taking Action

The Student Perception Survey is a formative tool designed to guide instructional practice in the classroom and across schools. Along with the online survey reports, teachers and principals have access to the Panorama Education Playbook (Playbook), an online professional learning tool that helps educators to share practices and create a personalized playbook of instructional strategies based on their survey results.
