Thank you for agreeing to complete this survey for the School Climate (ASCE) Study.

This study is being carried out by National Centre for Social Research, who have been commissioned by the Education Endowment Foundation (EEF) and Youth Endowment Fund (YEF). Your participation is very valuable in helping us understand the practices schools are using for their pupils from the perspective of senior leadership.

This survey asks about your school’s practices in areas such as behaviour management, student support, academic expectations, and pupil engagement. Your responses will help us build a clear picture of how schools across England approach these areas.

All responses will be treated with strict confidentiality. Your answers will not be shared with anyone (for example Ofsted, or the Department for Education) and findings will only be reported in summary form. For more information about how your data will be used, please see our Privacy Notice.

The survey should take around 15-20 minutes to complete. Please try to complete it in one sitting, as your progress will not be saved if you exit before finishing.

If you have any questions or experience any issues while completing the survey, please contact the research team at SchoolClimate@natcen.ac.uk or call 0808 168 2790.
