Choice, well-being and opportunity in the Jersey school system – Full Report

Abstract

This report explores issues of choice, opportunity, and wellbeing within Jersey’s schools. The aim of the study was to investigate the choices and options available to parents and pupils, the opportunities which pupils and parents have to make decisions and pursue their preferred choices, and the extent to which the wellbeing of pupils and their families is affected by these decisions. This research is based on the attitudes, perceptions, and experiences of pupils, parents, teachers, and other stakeholders in Jersey’s education system (such as representatives of business or government). We received over a thousand responses to a questionnaire survey and conducted hundreds of in-depth interviews to provide further depth to these insights. This report therefore seeks to reflect the opinions of the people who participated in our research. In doing so, it goes beyond measures of results or outcomes, to instead offer a picture of how ordinary people experience choice, opportunity, and wellbeing within Jersey’s schools
