Every Child Matters - Health Related Behaviour Survey 2010

A health related behaviour survey was carried out in Summer 2010. The work was commissioned and co-ordinated by the Joint Commissioning Group for Young People's Substance Misuse and the Health and Wellbeing Team. The data will be used to support the Hertfordshire Healthy Schools Programme. Year 5 and Year 6 pupils completed the Primary version of the questionnaire. Pupils in Years 8 and 10 completed the Secondary version of the questionnaire. A total of over 12,700 pupils took part in 109 primary schools and 35 secondary schools in Hertfordshire.
