Year 7 Health Survey

The Year 7 Health Survey (Y7HS) is an annual health and wellbeing survey of Year 7 students in the ACT.

For public schools, it is delivered alongside the annual School Satisfaction and Climate Survey with an opt-out option to minimise the burden to schools and their students.

For non-government schools, a survey link is provided to students via a parent letter and allows students to complete the survey at a time convenient to them.

Findings of the survey are reported at a population level and made available to the public annually through the ACT Health website. Results from the survey are used to guide the future delivery of programs and services to meet the needs of this age group and respond to emerging issues.
