About

This indicator is the percentage of students in grades 4 and 5 who reported they are happy to be at their school.

Source

New Brunswick Health Council, Student Wellness and Education Survey, Grades 4-5

Calculations

This indicator is calculated by dividing the number of respondents who answered "a lot like me" by the number of respondents who answered "not like me, a little like me or a lot like me" to the question: For each item, choose what best describes your feelings and ideas. c) I am happy to be at my school.

Notes

The 2019-2020 edition of this survey was conducted during the COVID-19 pandemic. Since the number of schools that participated in 2019-2020 is much lower than other editions of the survey, results at the provincial level were deemed not representative of the total student population. Therefore, survey results for New Brunswick, health zones and demographic groups are not available for the 2019-2020 edition. However, 2019-2020 results are available for communities in which the number of participating schools was deemed sufficient to be representative of the student population in that community.
