It's all about the Questions !

Before I even began to think about what my school magazine would look like or contain I decided to create a questionnaire so I could find out what the pupils of the school really wanted. I asked 9 multiple choice questions and also had a space for any other comments. The questions had to give me an idea what the pupils wanted the feel of the magazine to be like and also some basic questions about how the magazine should look visually.
