Introduction 

We are gathering the views of parents, carers and their children about their experiences of education in Wales. This survey is part of an evaluation of the Curriculum for Wales.  Arad Research is carrying out the survey on behalf of the Welsh Government.

The survey is aimed at parents and carers of children and young people from Reception to Year 9 (ages 4-14). Your views are important in informing the work of the Welsh Government.

The survey is in 3 parts:

• PART 1: For parents and carers to complete. This should take 5-10 minutes.
• PART 2: For a child between the ages of 4 and 14 to complete. This should take 5-10 minutes.
  Parents and carers are encouraged to support primary age children (Reception - Year 6) to complete the questions, while secondary age children (Year 7-9) can complete the questions independently if they wish. 
  If you have more than one child aged 4-14, please decide which child you would like to complete the survey before you begin. There are some optional questions at the end of this section which will help us understand different groups' views and experiences of Curriculum for Wales.
  
• PART 3: For parents and carers to complete. It asks for some information about you and should take less than 5 minutes. These questions are optional, but we would be very grateful if you could complete them to help us with our analysis. 

At the end of the survey, you will be asked whether you wish to be entered into a prize draw to win a shopping voucher worth £100. To be entered in the draw, you will need to complete the survey and provide your name, email address and phone number.

All information will be kept securely and anonymised as part of publications. More information on how we will use your data is available here (for parents/carers), here (for learners) and an information sheet for learners is available here.
