Comparison
Lumii vs wellbeing surveys.
Most school wellbeing tools are survey platforms — scheduled questionnaires, scores, benchmarks. Lumii is built on daily pupil voice. Both have a place. Here is the honest difference.
| Wellbeing surveys | Lumii | |
|---|---|---|
| Cadence | Termly or scheduled snapshots | Daily, continuous |
| What it captures | Answers to the questions asked | What the child chooses to say, in their own words |
| The quiet child | Can tick "fine" and disappear | Has a daily space to be heard — patterns surface over time |
| Safeguarding | Signals routed after analysis | Purple/Red alerts to authorised trained staff, immediately |
| Language | Usually English-first | 30+ languages including Arabic and a UAE Islamic version |
| Inspection evidence | Point-in-time scores | Continuous evidence mapped to the UAE Unified School Inspection Framework — KHDA, ADEK, SPEA |
| Output | A score | The picture — alerts, dashboard, Ask Lumii, case management |
Surveys give you a score. Lumii gives you the picture. Many of our schools keep their survey for benchmarking and run Lumii for the daily listening the survey can't do — the two aren't in conflict.
