Thank you for taking time to help with this survey 😊. It will take you up to 25 minutes to complete the survey. The survey closes on Friday 17 January 2025.
Background and Purpose
The Public Health Team at Swindon Borough Council created this survey to understand how you are feeling and how you can be better supported both at school and outside of school. Good mental health and emotional wellbeing helps us feel calm and comfort ourselves when we’re upset. We can cope with changes, fears and uncertainties in daily life and we can find it easier to make and keep good relationships with other people.
Survey questions and responses
You will be asked questions around your mental health and wellbeing, friendships and relationships, how you are finding school and activities outside of school. Some of the questions might be challenging to answer and all the questions are voluntary. Your responses are anonymous, which means that your answers to any questions cannot and will not be linked back to you. The survey report will not identify those who took part. Please answer truthfully. If you don’t understand something, please ask your teacher or teaching assistant. You can read more about how the data from this survey is used, stored and kept confidential on the privacy statement here.
