Evaluation of Questionnaire
For my first question I asked people to fill in what year they were in and they were all in year 12, as my target audience is the 6th form then this was a positive result. I decided to put all year groups in as it would be good to see the whole age groups and it gave me more choice as I could decide on who to hand my questionnaires too.
For my second Question I asked if they usually bought magazines. This would give me an idea on if my target audience liked reading magazines. Only 2 people said that they did buy them and 4 of them said no. This gave me an idea that maybe if I had asked more people, this would be the re-occurring theme of not many people buying magazines.
For my third question I asked people what they would like to read in the magazine. The theme of “School clubs” was the most popular as it had 4 votes and the other popular one was Exam Tips with 2 votes, the others had no votes. This gave me an idea of what people would like to read about and it will help me with the final product.
For the fourth question I asked whether the price of the magazine was an issue. This gave me an idea of whether I could put a cost on the product. 4 people said that they were willing to pay money for the magazine. Whilst 2 people said that cost was an issue.
For the fifth question I asked if people would enter competitions if they were in the magazine. 1 person said yes whilst 5 said no. This told me that maybe people want to read more about the topics instead of doing little activities so it made it easier for me to realise not to put activities/competitions in.
For the sixth question I asked about the colour schemes. The colours were:
Black, Gold, Blue, Red, Purple, Orange. One person voted for all of them. 2 people voted blue. One person voted purple, one person voted orange and one person voted gold. This told me that people will like multicolours on the magazine and it also described that colour scheme will be important.
For the Seventh question I asked how much people would be willing to pay for a magazine. Everyone said that one pound would be a reasonable price. This told me that if I were to put a price tag on the magazine then people would be fine for paying a pound.
For the eighth question I asked people who they thought would read a school magazine. They had to choose from all of the years. (year 7-13)
One person voted year 9. One person voted for sixth form (year 12-13). 2 people voted for year 7 and 2 people voted year 10. This told me that people from all over the school would like to read the magazine.
For the ninth question I asked people, what they thought would be a suitable masthead. 2 people chose “School News” and 3 people chose “Too cool for School”. One person Chose Ysgol Brennin Harri’r VIII and nobody chose KHS. This told me that KHS wouldn’t be a suitable masthead and that people would be intrigued by the masthead “Too Cool for School”
For the Tenth and Final question I asked people what images they would like to see on the front cover. 3 people voted for Sports Clubs. 2 people voted for the main school and 1 person voted school resources. This told me that sports clubs should be the main images and the main school should be present somewhere.
