About

This indicator is the percentage of parents or guardians of students in grades K to 5 who reported that they are physically active with their child 3 or more days per week.

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 "often (3-5 times weekly) or very often (daily)" by the number of respondents who answered "never, rarely (less than 1 time weekly), sometimes (1-2 times weekly), often (3-5 times weekly) or very often (daily)" to the question: How often are you physically active with your child, playing active games, sports or physical activities?

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.
