WELCOME
Dear Student
More Good Days At School Project
Your school has been invited to take part in an important national research programme aimed at improving the experience of pupils and staff in secondary schools.
Taking part will give all pupils a say in what helps them to learn better and what supports their wellbeing. We sometimes use the word ‘wellbeing’ to describe that feeling when we are healthy, happy and coping with every day life. The programme will support schools to help students and staff deal better with stress and make sure everyone in the school community feels safe and valued.
The programme is running from January 2024 to March 2025.
Why are you being asked to complete a student survey?
We want to understand your experience of school and what helps you to cope, and what makes school hard sometimes. We want to know this so that we can provide your schools with the best training and support.
