Review of Wellbeing@School Surveys
[User 4230 name redacted] made this Official Information request to Education Review Office
The request was partially successful.
From: [User 4230 name redacted]
Dear Education Review Office,
When you conduct a review of a school, do you actually review the school's wellbeing@school survey results (https://www.wellbeingatschool.org.nz/) or other methods of measurement, to independently monitor the level of wellbeing and inclusiveness at the school? Or do you simply check whether they have been done or not, and rely entirely on the school board's self-reporting on wellbeing and inclusiveness?
If you do check the survey results, do you compare the survey results and the school board responses over time to gauge if there are issues in wellbeing and inclusiveness at the school, and the school has adequately responded to them?
Yours faithfully,

Dear Tom Robinson,
Thank you for your referral to: http://www.ero.govt.nz/how-ero-reviews/o...
My reading of the webpage, is that the answer to my official information act request, is in fact 'No, you do not specifically review the students, families and staff responses in the school's wellbeing and inclusion surveys, but instead rely on the school to simply conduct and report on them'. This interpretation is further reinforced by your reliance on the school's Board Assurance Statement and Self-Review.
Please correct me if this interpretation is incorrect.
Yours sincerely,
