Nottingham Annual Health and Wellbeing Survey
We have partnered with leading research company the School's Health Education Unit (SHEU) to provide an annual health and wellbeing survey for schools in Nottingham.
The Nottingham Health and Wellbeing Survey is aimed at children in years 6 and 10 (can also be completed with other year groups) and covers a range of health and wellbeing related behaviour questions. The survey is open at the beginning of the Autumn Term each year.
Nottingham City Council's Public Health team commission the survey to gain useful insights into children's health and wellbeing behaviours. This helps them to plan services and identify impacts.
What are the benefits for participating schools?
- An individual report on pupils' health and wellbeing behaviours with comparisons to citywide and national data.
- Data to support a whole school approach to health and wellbeing and inform the Relationships, Sex and Health Education (RSHE) curriculum and Personal Development planning in line with government guidance and Ofsted requirements.
- School leaders will be able to demonstrate how they have sought clarity on determining the health priorities within the school and any appropriate interventions they have instigated to address these.
- School staff will have a better understanding of issues affecting their pupils and can respond appropriately.
How do schools take part?
The survey is open to schools for the first half term in September each year.
The survey takes approximately 1 hour to complete and can either be completed electronically or on paper copies (paper copies are also analysed by SHEU).

"We decided to sign-up to the SHEU survey in order to review and revise our PSHE curriculum and personal development offering. The survey itself looked at little daunting but it was actually quite simple to conduct and our year 6's could mostly complete it independently. We then received our own school data and comparative data against other city schools. From this, I was able to put together an action plan for the next academic year. It was worthwhile and filled a 'gap' in reviewing our provision." - Teacher, Milford Primary School
