4. Pupil Survey The first Croydon pupil Survey was undertaken in Spring 2014 and had been repeated in Spring 2016. There were two slightly different surveys: the primary survey was completed by pupils in years 4 and 6 and the secondary survey by years 8 and 10. The council received the borough-wide results and each school received the result for its own pupils compared to the borough data. The purpose of the survey was to: Give pupils a chance to be heard Provide real life data to inform future strategies Engage pupils in public health and policy making processes Raise pupil awareness of public health issues Significantly fewer pupils completed the survey in 2016: in particular very few secondary age boys. It was recognised that to engage schools needed a personal approach and explanation of its value: there had not been the capacity to do this in 2016. Key findings primary – 83% say they like physical activity 615 children said that they look after someone at home, and of these 19% said it stops them doing things they enjoy 88% are very at school 36% feel uncomfortable talking to parents/carers about their worries 39% use the internet for chatting (29% in 2014) 20% have been bullied outside at school during break times in the month before the survey (28% in 2014) Key findings secondary – 87% have not bullied anyone else in the last year 25% feel their school cares whether they are happy or not 52% of them practise a faith 38% said they did not have at least times in an average week ‘1-2’ 18% did not participate in physical activity for an hour or more (on any day the week before the survey) 11% in 2014 – 31% are asked for their ideas and opinions in their community (24% in 2014) Members of the Board were concerned that only the schools had the school level results and so there was no opportunity to ensure that schools were addressing any issues, specific to them, that may have been identified. Action 4.1: Circulate survey report to sub group leads to inform their work on the Partnership priorities Action 4.2: Consider how the of children and young people with SEND, who might not be able to complete an on-line survey, could be captured. 5.
