Bounce Together Frequently Asked Questions

We believe it’s crucial to measure the wellbeing of pupils, staff, and parents. While we routinely measure academic outcomes, there is currently no mandatory requirement for schools to measure wellbeing. BounceTogether has been designed to help schools collect data around mental health and wellbeing so they can work to drive improvements in behaviour, attendance, engagement, overall achievement, and more.

This document aims to address common questions, providing clarity on the purpose and process of wellbeing measurement:

• Why do we measure pupil, staff, and parent wellbeing?
• Why use research-based surveys?
• What sort of questions do the surveys ask?
• Who should be involved in wellbeing measurement?
• Are the surveys anonymous?
• What should we do with results?
• Who can access results?
• How can we improve engagement with surveys?
