Less than an hour of your time could make all the difference to providing for the long term needs of your school’s SEN pupils….
We’ve been approached by a group of charities supporting SENCos, and pupils with disabilities and their parents to carry out research that will
a) help them gain a better understanding of how schools in England support pupils with a range of disabilities and needs,
b) apply for funding that will enable them to continue offering vital services and support to schools, teachers and those working with special needs students.
We know your time is valuable, so we’re offering £40 for taking part. You’ll need to allocate approximately 45 minutes to answering an online feedback form.

Oxfam is committed to making a difference for people around the world; by completing this short survey, you will be helping them to make a difference.

This short survey should take no longer than 6-7 minutes to complete, and all valid entries will automatically be entered for Schoolzone’s April prize draw worth £500 plus, if you’re signed up to our loyalty scheme, you will be credited with a personal payment of £2.

Consultancy opportunities
We offer excellent commercial rates of pay for freelance and consultancy work: please register an interest (no commitment) by checking the appropriate box at the bottom of the form or call Verity on 01242 262906 for more details. You'll also need to register (free) to access some areas of the site. Note: these offers are generally only open to UK based people.
Focus groups
Focus groups are group discussions with 6 - 10 participants, run by a Schoolzone moderator. We pay attendees £50 - £75 each to participate in the discussion and we provide refreshments too! Groups run for 2 hours after school (usually starting at 4:30) and are held at a prominent local venue or are held online via an online chatroom.
Focus groups are a great opportunity to get your voice heard and meet other colleagues in your local area. We run groups all across the UK and on a variety of topics. For example a group may review a publisher's advertising material, provide feedback on new product development or discuss the implication of new initiatives that are affecting UK education.

Surveys
For some of our surveys, targeting very specific types of teacher, we sometimes receive fewer than 100 responses, and we STILL give away the prize draws, which may be worth up to £1000. When we notify prize winners, we give them 10 days to claim their prize; if they don’t, we re-run the draw.
You don’t even need to complete a survey to be eligible to win up to £1000. We have a ‘send to a friend’ feature in our online surveys, which means you can forward any one of our surveys to a colleague or friend who works in the appropriate subject area, and for every valid entry submitted by one of your referees, you will be entered into the prize draw.
