About
This indicator is the percentage of parents or guardians of students in grades K to 5 who reported drinking sugary drinks on the day before the survey.
Source
New Brunswick Health Council, Student Wellness and Education Survey, Grades K-5: Parent/Guardian Perspective
Calculations
This indicator is calculated by dividing the number of respondents who answered "1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 or 7 or more" by the number of respondents who answered "none, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 or 7 or more" to the question: Yesterday, how many times did you eat/consume: d) Sugary drinks (for example, pop, juice, flavoured waters, sport and energy drinks, hot or cold tea and coffee drinks, flavoured milks [like chocolate milk])?
Notes
Due to the very low response rate for the 2025-2026 parent questionnaire, survey results may not be representative of the overall student and parent population. Therefore, results should not be used for planning or comparing to previous editions of the survey. Some schools will not receive their K to 5 results due to the extremely low number of parents who responded.
