43,734 students from over 200 schools and colleges across England took part in the 2023 OxWell Student Survey!
The OxWell Student Survey is a large-scale annual survey designed to measure the wellbeing (health and happiness) of children and young people aged 9–18 years old.
The questions in the survey address a range of issues relevant to wellbeing, including lifestyle and school life.
Factors assessed include mental wellbeing, anxiety, indictors of vulnerability such as bullying and loneliness, and risky behaviour, school experience, substance usage, sleep patterns, safety including online safety, protective factors (such as exercise and healthy eating), and attitudes to accessing mental health support.
