All of the children in school had the opportunity to complete the 'Wellbeing survey' (this survey has been developed and managed by
the Health & Wellbeing Service - Leeds City Council). 
This survey was split into three versions for primary, secondary and post 16 settings, and has been created in response to the pandemic, and its effect on school life for pupils. It is entirely optional but we were keen to hear from as many of our children as possible, as it is a useful tool for helping us to understand how we can better support our pupils as they continue to re-integrate into education. It will also highlight where our school is performing well. 
The survey asked pupils about life during and after the Coronavirus lock down period, their opinons about what has worked well in terms of their Social, Emotional and Mental Health (SEMH) and wellbeing, and what support has been provided and taken from school, when times have been difficult. 

KS2 children completed it during class time, early on in the year on individual computers and were supported by a member of school staff who answered any questions they had. Early years and KS1 children were able to complete this at home with the help of parents. As the survey was confidential and anonymous, your child was not asked to give their name, date of birth or address at any stage during the survey. This also meant that it would not be possible for anyone, including any member of the school or Leeds City Council, to identify which child gave any of the information. 

How will the results be used?
The results will be used by the individual school (schools will only have access to their own data), the School Nursing Service and Leeds City Council. We might use words provided in pupil answers on our website, social media and in reports; for example, "I found the online tutoring helped me to understand my work better" (Year 7 pupil, Cardiff).
In addition, the survey may also be shared with organisations, such as the Univeristy of Leeds and Leeds Beckett University. Local authority wide data (an average of all schools in a particular local authority) may also be shared between these organisations, which does not link any individual school to the data. 

Will my child's survey results be secure?
For all pupils who took part, data was private and anonymous. We will comply fully with all data protection legislation. This means we will keep your child's data safe and secure, now and in the future.

For those parents who did not wish for their child to complete the survey, they received a letter of how they could 'opt-out' of this task. 

We have always had health & wellbeing as one of our main priorities at Pool C of E and this is especially so with the current situation regarding Covid-19. We are particulary focusing on the children's mental health and we continue to monitor this on a daily basis. 
We take part in daily health & wellbeing sessions where children can voice any concerns or anxious feelings that they might have. This will be a way that children can communicate quickly to a member of staff if they are not feeling happy, or are struggling in any way.
We will be continuing to use our long term plans of health & wellbeing which can be found below. We will also be incorporating resources used from 'Mindmate', 'You, Me and PSHE', the 'PSHE Association' and 'Lifewise'.
