Pupil Lifestyle Survey

What is the Pupil Lifestyle Survey

Since 2015,Doncaster Council has conducted the Pupil Lifestyle Survey, which has provided valuable data on children and young people’s health-related behaviour, through an anonymous school-based questionnaire. From the 2018/19 academic year the survey has been completed annually.

The data from this survey has provided a set of Doncaster-wide figures at key points in children and young people’s development; KS2, 3 and 4. The results have allowed us to more effectively target work with children and young people, and provide an agenda for action into the future.

 

What does the Pupil Lifestyle Survey Cover?

Key themes of the survey include;

  • Physical activity
  • Nutrition and oral health
  • Keeping safe
  • Emotional health and well-being
  • Risk taking behaviours

What does it involve?

For primary schools, the survey involves Year 4 pupils, with the option of also including Year 6 pupils.  For secondary schools, the survey involves Year 8 pupils, with the option of also including Year 10 pupils. 

What do the results look like?

Each school will receive an individualised report detailing their results including comparable data with the rest of Doncaster.

Doncaster Council will receive an overall report for all pupils taking part and an additional report by locality.  Results from the survey will contribute towards the Doncaster Children and Young People’s Plan 202-2025 and other strategic plans.
