Findings from Oxford University pupil mental health survey

Thursday 10th September 2020

During May-June 2020, Wiltshire schools were able to take part in a modified version of our Health and Wellbeing Survey, adapted by collaborators at the University of Oxford and Foster and Brown to the challenges of COVID-19 and school closure.

The survey involved schools from counties including: East Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Oxfordshire, South Gloucestershire and Wiltshire. 

The survey was for pupils in years 4-13 and had 3 versions for different ages: (years 4-7, years 8-11, years 12-13)

The aim of the survey was to help inform schools of how lockdown is impacting the well-being and learning of their pupils.

This version of the survey is part of a study that has been approved by the University of Oxford Research Ethics Committee.

Details of the findings can be found here - including videos for primary and secondary pupils. alongside data summary posters.

An update on our main pupil health and wellbeing survey will be sent to all Wiltshire schools later this month.
