TEACHERS:Some students may have difficulty reading/understanding questions, so please help students whenever they need it.
 
Teachers could you please read out the following statement before completing the survey.
 
This is a questionnaire about life at school this year for you.
 
The questions are mainly to help you to describe your thoughts and feelings about school and what goes on between students at your school. The questions focus on your happiness & wellbeing and connection to school and on the issue of bullying. Students sometimes bully other students at school by deliberately and repeatedly hurting or upsetting them on some way; for example, by hitting or pushing them around, teasing them or leaving them out of things on purpose. The student does not feel they can easily defend themselves.  The odd fight or quarrel is not bullying.
