The purpose of the New Brunswick Student Wellness Survey (NBSWS) is to examine students' perceptions, attitudes and behaviours in a number of key areas related to student well-being. It is a provincial initiative of the New Brunswick Department of Social Development - Wellness Branch in cooperation with the Department of Education and Early Childhood Development. Data collection and analysis is carried out by the NBHC.
The NBSWS is separated in two surveys that cycle every three years: the Grades 6-12 Student Wellness Survey and the Elementary Student Wellness Survey.
2019-2020 - Elementary Student Wellness Survey
Provincial results for the 2019-2020 edition of the New Brunswick Elementary Student Wellness Survey are not available.
The school closures of March 2020 as a protective measure against the COVID-19 pandemic have impacted our school participation rate, and as a result, the amount of information that the New Brunswick Health Council can reliably publish. While we are not in a position to report provincial or district data, each school that participated before the school closures have received their own individualized reports detailing results for their own students in terms of wellness measures.
